Everyone in this world is more or less optimistic. Evem the oldest person in the world may be thinking that he will have a next breathe... and that is also a sign of optimism. Optimism is good in life. But to remain highly optimistic in real life is not so easy thing. At times we get frustrated in the life and become less optimistic. Even though we know that only optimism may get us to work harder and get better result, we fail to follow it. How much optimisti you are- please share.

I am an incorrigible optimist. Sometimes a little bit of pessimism, or as some people call it realism pays. But if I am not optimistic I can't function.

I think that when you know the situation and know that it is not in your favour and take an action considering the negative impact of the expected or unexpected outcome, it is not pessimism but it is realism. At times there is no scope of any optimism and we have to accept the situation. However, finding atleast a little of hope in the worst situation and working on that hope to get something out of nothing.

That is right, I think that we must try to remain optimistic or else we may get depressed and that is very dangerous situation for us. If we are depressed, even the easiest thing will look to be very difficult and we may not try to do such easy things just because of that depression. But remaining optimistic will keep you interested in different things and that will keep you away from depression. So in nut shell, we should remain optimistic in most of the situations and keep trying.

I am optimistic and always believe in optimism in everything i do. how far optimistic am i is one question which i believe my friends should see and answer. of course there may be times when we are down in our mind and the pessimistic thoughts creep in. that is there and i should accept that. at those times i try to focus and realise on what i am.

Well said friend. Infact the adverse conditions are good for us sometimes. Some good thinkers have said " Adversities introduces one to oneself". So adverse conditions give us chance to know ourselves better. Another good thing I feel like agreeing with you is that we must focus on our goals and try to achieve the goals by working harder.
