The Optimistic October Challenge is a great way to boost positivity! Although we are nearly at the end of October, the sentiments are the same every month.
'Small actions add up to big changes'
''It can be hard to stay hopeful with all the challenges in our lives. We have a built-in 'negativity bias', but we can also train our brains to look for what's good.
This challenge will help you develop realistic optimism by creating a habit of taking small positive actions every day.''
