I think it's a great way to reprogram your mind to move forward.  When I encounter something particularly challenging or unexpected, I always exclaim, "FUN!" and move on.  It does change your mind from the negative to positive!

Yes I've been doing that for years & years although we say Chose and Move or Shift or Next. There is one person that used to be connected to us awhile back that continues to  focus on made up bs stuff about whatever and honestly we simply don't pay attention as it goes nowhere positive. I do stop and wonder (for a quick moment) why people waste their time year after year filling their heads full of  negative nonsense.

Depends on what 'move on' means.

Those who write mystery novels, without exception, 'move on' leads to more intensisty, intrigue, violence..

I would substitute "Laugh" and "go for a long run" as more attractive than rachet up the intensity.

"Plot twist and move on,' though is better that stewing in the steamer of life gone wrong.
