Are you a grump?



Are you in a bad mood? Not to worry - according to research, it's good for you.
An Australian psychologist and expert who has been studying emotions found being grumpy makes you think more clearly.

Now me being one of the annoying happy types with my own strengths, miserable people have their strengths, which are better decision-making and less gullible. That is according to the researchers.

While me, the cheerful type , which is I fosters creativity, while gloominess breeds attentiveness and careful thinking, says Professor Joe Forgas in Australian Science Magazine.

That all said I can only take so much of grump people. Yes we love everyone, but that doesn’t mean I have to be around them all the time. Why do not want to be around grump people ? It is because I don’t want to be drawn down to their level.
Personally I like being happy and joyful and when others that don’t like to be happy and joyful I really don’t want to be with them.

Now I know there will be times that you just have to be around them and one of those time in meetings where you need some clear thinking. Yes everyone has their place. One thing I always do with the grump type after the meeting is let them know how much they helped.

Here are some things a grumpy person can do to lift them out of the grumps. That even goes for those that are hard wired to be grumpy.

Don’t Get Stuck in A Rut

Don’t Get Exasperated Over Things You Have No Control.

Have Perspective of Young Child

Leave Criticism To Others

Be Flexible

Positive Attitude

I didn’t say this is easy for the grumpy person, but if they try these things it can help improve their mood. However, in some cases grumpy people are just born grumpy. Thus Grumpy people seldom need reasons to be in a bad mood, but scientists have come up with the perfect excuse: they are born that way.

Happiness to you
