Relentless Optimism - How A Positive Attitude Changes Your Life - Harper McDaniel
Introduction
Optimism is the belief that the best outcome is possible. Pessimism believes that the worst-case scenario is unavoidable. These two distinct types of people have very different perspectives on life. Optimists, on the other hand, are generally happier, healthier, and more successful in all aspects of their lives. A little optimism can go a long way.
Many people believe that one's level of optimism or pessimism is determined by one's past. To some extent, this is correct. Children who are taught to think positively are far more likely to remain optimists than children who are taught to think negatively. As adults, however, we always have options. It is always our choice whether to spend our time making lemonade out of lemons or complaining about the scarcity of lemons. Pessimists see problems where optimists see possibilities.
Pessimism is a mindset that can be altered. This occurs when we desire more from life and believe we are capable of achieving it. While negative thoughts keep us focused on obstacles and reasons not to act, optimism and positive thinking allow us to see new possibilities. It gives us hope that life can provide us with more. Optimists do not expect guarantees, but they are willing to risk setbacks and failure in exchange for the possibility of success. They see every reason to strive for happiness. It is their beliefs and mindsets, not their ability, luck, or fate, that determine the quality of their lives.
Optimists never consider themselves to be victims of their circumstances. They understand that things can go wrong at any time, but they also understand how many good opportunities exist. As a result, they learn to overcome obstacles in order to achieve their goals and dreams. Obstacles, for optimists, are lessons to be learned on the path to success. Optimists believe they have control over their lives, whereas pessimists believe they are controlled by life.
Everyone has the ability to become more optimistic, happier, and more successful. All you have to do is expect more from life and understand that more is possible. Expectations have a habit of being self-fulfilling. Those who see the glass as half-full have a better chance of living a prosperous life because that is their expectation of life. Pessimists who see the glass as half-empty may suffer from thirst for the rest of their lives.
This book attempts to explain the mindset and benefits of optimism, as well as how to improve one's life by increasing positive thinking. You can make positive changes that will lead to greater success regardless of your circumstances. How you think influences how you act. And your actions will determine whether you are led by optimism or negativism.
Chapter 1: What Is Optimism?
We've all heard that optimism is good – seeing the glass as half full and making lemonade out of lemons. Optimists believe that success is their birthright. It is available if they are willing to put in the effort. Many people, on the other hand, believe it is an innate ability that we are born with. You either have it or you don't.
That couldn't be farther
