Why being an optimist gives me a natural high.

The law of attraction is based on assumption that like attracts like, so when you are in a happy mood, you attract happiness around you. In effect, you automatically feel lighter, brighter, and more inclined to have initiative and do good things. Being optimistic is a state of mind, but making it come to life is entirely up to you.

I'm an optimist too in most part of life. I am like this since I understood my Christianity. It gave me the perspective of positivity, that everything has a higher purpose and that God is in total control of my life. I have some bad times too but it will always turn that my mind is still very positive of its outcome. I just realize what God can do in the midst of situations that seems impossible. lastly, I know now that I'm unique and I can do some thing that people may not be able to do,and vice versa.

Thank you for your response. Being positive with our views and bouncing back with lowest of our lows is not easy. But when you look on the bright side of things,you attribute the negative event to a temporary cause that was beyond your control. This gives you the strength to fight again - and never doubt your capabilities in the first place. Keep it up!
