8 tips: How to Become Optimistic


8 steps to become optimistic on wikihow

If you've always had a pessimistic worldview, it can be difficult to shift your focus, but it is possible to start seeing the glass as half full.



Some warnings as well:
1. Avoid negative people. If you can't avoid them, learn how to not let them get you down.
2. Don't let your negative feelings control you.
3. Don't confuse pessimism with depression. Depression can make everything look worse than it is.
4. You can only change you. You can't change other people.
5. While it is true that you create your own circumstances, accept that the past is the past. Don't let negative circumstances trigger irrational guilt.
The past is the past. It's over. It's done. Let it go.
