Un comportamiento sobre el que es provechoso poner atención es darle a algo parcial el caracter de totalidad. O como se dice habitualmente Take part for the whole . It is also something we usually do only negative things.
can say for example "It was a horrible day." It is likely that most of the things that have happened were unpleasant, but not ALL. It is not naive optimism nor cheap, but allowed the observation to recognize that 90% (or 95% if it was really horrible) of the day was bad and a small part was good.
A common use is to generalize the skills or the lack thereof. Phrases like "Everything I do goes wrong" correspond to a vision of reality what makes us go wrong in all things we do. And not everything that we do goes wrong. The same goes for expressions such as "always wrong" when we are wrong now but at other times not. Or when there is a possibility that in future no mistake. A more realistic approach would be something like "So far I've been wrong most of the time, but maybe later hits." Therefore there is ALWAYS.
There are very few things that really are NEVER or ALWAYS.
Think you play a part as if the whole? Do you recognize this behavior?
