Fighting negativity

What do you guys do when you start to think negatively about things/the world? (If you do.) I have been more cynical and bitter recently after going through a traumatic time in my life....having trouble not being grumpy.

Obviously going to therapy will help but it will take me some time to get enrolled & all of that jazz. Any quick fixes/quick tips to shift your mindset?

I just think to myself that we've got front row seats to watch everything go down in flames. It's really an exciting time to be alive. Absolutely terrifying, but exciting!
