Are you optimistic or pessimistic?

I'm more pessimistic than I am optimistic about things. I always think about the worst outcomes so I'm not disappointed or get my hopes up.
 
That's a tough one. It genuinely depends on my mood on that day and what the thing is I guess. For example, thinking about the future, I'm quite optimistic and looking forward to finishing Uni. But with certain other things, I can sometimes be a bit more "realistic" which ends up with me being quite pessimistic.
 
I go out of my way to be optimistic. I sincerely believe that the energy that you put out there is what comes back to you. I'm not naive and believe that we have to be happy all of the time and that bad things do happen. I just refuse to let negativity drag me down and steal my potential joy.
 
I prefer the term proactive pessimist. Work hard for the best outcome but anticipate the worst, that way when the worst happens you aren't caught off guard and crushed and when it doesn't you are pleasantly surprised.

Yes definitely this,I like to be optimistic about things and not be down about life,it's always a good thing to have a smile on your face.
 
I'm a very optimistic and open minded person. It's the best way to live one's life and you would be cheeky and cheerfully happy all the time no matter the circumstances you're in.

I think that I’m a bit of both, but more optimistic.
 
I used to be pessimistic and worry about so many things. As I grew older, I learned how to be optimistic, even if I was in a desperate situation.
