People seem to focus on the negative aspects of life:

-- Oh no, it's Monday!

-- If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck.

-- Life sucks!

But why focus on the bad? There are 24 hours in a day, if five minutes are bad why don't we focus on the other 23 hours and 55 minutes?

As an individual, you have the ability to shift your focus. Being an artist, whether it was acting or writing, you learn to accept the bad reviews, people that just don't like you and your work, and people judging your every move. But it doesn't stop you, one positive review or someone saying that your interpretation of a work was beautiful is enough to get you to the next performance. 

Be willing to shift your focus, one bad is no where near as powerful as one good!
