Here is a very helpful article to use as a reminder of the power of optimism.
I have found it to be the utmost truth. Even, as of lately, when I struggle to be so... I am reminded how unpleasant I become, how pessimism corrupts my soul, and I'm not the bubbly, cheerful, lovable, healthy, happy girl others enjoy being around. Not to mention I don't enjoy being around myself!! Ha!
It just takes us a moment to go "What the hell is wrong with me!? I've been down this road before and I DON'T LIKE IT!!! I mean, really! What is the definition of stupid? Get it together!" Well, I guess that didn't sound so positive, but it works for sports! ;)
Don't get me wrong... we all need a healthy balance. And being an optimist does not mean we put on the blinders and act like every thing is OK! Not the point... Just read the article. It's a simple reminder...
