Here in Germany we call pessimists "People" while optimists are just considered weird foreigners 😁

Man for your average person in business, optimism is cute but being a realist and producing real results is what most people value.

You wanna be an optimist? Go right ahead but people are looking for results at the end of the day.

It’s corporate America and the business world after all.

the problem is that in my experience pessimists tend to take into account what has already gone before more readily, while optimists feel that in spite of that things will be different now. Which is kinda annoying when there's no actual plan on how to improve things to take that into account. you get this "ok, forget what's gone before, this time it'll be great!". And you roll your eyes because they've learnt nothing.

Yes! Exactly!

This is definitely my boss and I haha

He calls himself a realist but I tell him he’s a pessimist. He looks at me like I’m in idiot for being an optimist and for calling myself a realist.

We’ll never see eye to eye but I hope I can help him get his company on a better trajectory.

Pessimism is not that bad, it means you worry and care for things in life. But optimism is the better road, since it leads you to a target.
Your positive vibes always makes me smile ❤

Realists would be able to see both positive and negative possibilities, as well as having a good understanding of the likelihood of those possibilities happening and what would increase or decrease their likelihood of happening.

Instead of just assuming that something is more likely to happen because it's positive, or negative.

Nice thing about being a pessimist - I don't have to constantly drug myself with words of affirmations and positivity - the pessimist is the sober one, how bad have we become addicts of fake happiness

Unknown is that! In optimism or pessimist, if you never take a shot you’ll never know.

I don’t think a working pessimist are very common, I look at a pessimist like someone who doesn’t find a point in rolling up their sleeves, they think there’s nothing to work towards, someone who thinks the world will always bring down further and further, but they still laugh and enjoy things just knowing they will eventually be unfortunate

I’m usually an optimist but at times can be skeptical 😁

Brilliant sight. I would only change the last sentence for me. I’d take a working pessimist over a sideline OPTIMIST any day.

It's a positive or optimistic state of mind that keeps one living longer or basically survive hardships. If you need to get through hard times you need to take upon positive and/or optimistic mindset. Trust me I've lived through a lot of hardships and if you want life to be better thinking positive/and or adopting an optimistic mindset is the only way.

The more I learn about how the systems of the world actually work, the less optimistic I become. No one should be this bitter in their 30's. Of course I'll try to make it better but I will spend my whole life working on a tiny fraction of the problem. It's not very inspiring.
