Step 1.
Let go of the assumption that the
world is against you, or that you were
born with a gray cloud over your
head.

pessimism.

past does not equal
the future.

Step 4.
See yourself as a cause, not
an effect.

Step 5.
Accept pain, failure and
disappointment as a part of life, not
the entirety of it.

Be thankful.

Use positive affirmations

Step 8.
Remember that life is
short.

Step 9.
Be a balanced optimist.

Step 10.
Use quotes to
remind yourself
how to be
optimistic.

Here are a few inspirational
sayings:

•
Life has a way of reminding one
that it can be worse.

Until one understands the low and
darker side of life, the appreciation
of the awe-inspiring highs will remain
stagnant.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

Look happy.
Studies have shown that putting a
positive expression on your face can
actually make you feel happier and
more optimistic about the future.

•
Practice by conveying these ideas to
others.

No matter how odd this may sound,
listen to optimistic music (that you
like) and read books that have a least
a little optimism in it.

Avoid negative people.
If you can't avoid them, learn how to
not let them get you down.

Don't confuse pessimism with
depression.
Depression can make everything look
worse than it is.

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.

Realize that it's not about what
happens to you, it's about how you
react to what happens.
