Optimist or Pesimist?

Optimist or Pesimist?

Optimist, the opposite of pessimism, exemplifies a lifeview where one looks upon the world as a positive place. Optimists generally believe that people and events are inherently good. They have a so-called "positive" outlook on life, believing that things will work out in the end. A common conundrum illustrates optimism versus pessimism with the question, does one regard a given glass of water as half full or as half empty? Conventional wisdom expects optimists to reply with half full and pessimists to respond with half empty.

Pessimism describes a general belief that things are bad, and tend to become worse; or that looks to the eventual triumph of evil over good; it contrasts with optimism, the contrary belief in the goodness and betterment of things generally.

I'm an optimist ;).

I am a 'strategist'

pessimist

I look at the glass half full :P...always did,im a positive person

I like to think that it is simply half way to another full cup.

The glass is half full!
Optimist :D

It varies. :)

I'm pessimistic when it comes to grades because I don't want to think I did good and get a mark less than what I expected. :D if I'm pessimist that way, I can't be dissapointed by my marks.

But for everything else, there is Mastercard... I mean optimism.

Realist... :P

Ermmm, im a bit of both, depends what day im having.

Somedays it can be 'some fucking alki dick head has left my glass half empty'

Other days it can be 'Woooo some kind alcoholic had kindly taken away some of my drink and left it half fucking full! ^_^ '
