It’s easier to be positive when your life is going well and the world is relatively settled.

When that’s not happening, (like it is right now for some of us) that’s when you need to call on practices that build resilience. Researchers from the University of Virginia found when standing in front of a hill, people who were with their friends estimated the hill to be 10 to 20% less steep than participants who were alone. And the longer the friendship, the less steep the hill appeared.
