It is also no secret that focus on negativity is a great way to become a negative person yourself.  Even if there’s a Wall Street rally like yesterday, people automatically talk about how it won’t last.  How do you get by in a time when it seems the whole country is super focused on the worst of reality?  Do you turn the TV off?  Just read old books?  Or do you embrace it?

How are you keeping your chin up in a downturn?
