This week we will be focusing on overgeneralization. An overgeneralization error happens when people make general conclusions based on specific situations. It’s making a mountain out of a mole hill. For example, if somebody doesn’t smile and say “hello” right away, a person may thinks “they must be angry at me.” Another example would be if a person find themselves in an uncomfortable position and their heart starts to race, they begin to think “I am going to have a heart attack” or “I am going to faint”.
How often do you find yourself overgeneralizing? Today we challenge you to keep count with a pen and paper. Let’s challenge these and think or some ways to reverse these thoughts.
