Optimism is based on facts, it is also commonly thought of as being a rather trivial attribute. It is the ability to see the positive side of things rather than the negative. People who are optimistic thinkers are usually positive people because they approach life with the expectation that a happy outcome is both desirable and possible. Whereas with hopefulness it doesn’t appear that great, but we take the leap of faith to generate new visions based on possibilities that become contagious to encourage people to connect in scoundrel actions always against the possibilities and what you look forward to.
Optimism can be viewed positive to the individual; however it can be harmful in some ways. The way that I can predict that it may be harmful is by taking risk and believing that the outcomes will be positive and they can’t or are not always good. The person who is optimistic does not see any negative thoughts of failing, but when things don’t turn as expected they face consequences and disappointment.
Pessimism is more of a state of mind that view aspects of life in a negative perspective, and have no enthusiasm in looking forward to future events. However, pessimism can also be beneficial in some ways. Negative things that occur are not always for a bad cause. A good example of this can be when in a job situation is not going well, and before things turn worse than what they are you find another job. People face some negativity but in the end the bad forces pay off.
