Optimists are people with positive attitudes who expect favorable outcomes. When you expect things to work out, you take the necessary action to make sure they do. Being a pessimist is easy—not necessarily pleasant or fun, but easy—because you don’t have to do anything except let the world pass you by while you cling to your personal philosophy of gloom and doom. As Winston Churchill once said, “A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. This is why pessimists are rarely high achievers and high achievers are almost always optimists. Remember, you choose your attitude and if you choose to be positive, the world is yours!
