I have a secret for you. • Optimism is not looking at a “sh*t sandwich” and telling yourself it’s going to be delicious. Optimism is acknowledging the fact that, “Yes, I’m holding a sh*t sandwich and I can’t change that, but I can make a better sandwich tomorrow.” Think of optimism as a mix of positivity and realism. • Pessimism, on the other hand, is often just a less obvious manifestation of fear. Another issue could be self worth. It’s not that you're afraid of happiness, you believe you don't deserve it. • Your self worth is so low that you don’t allow yourself to even think of the opportunities. Pessimism clouds your vision. • The other possible reason you’re perpetually the “Debby Downer?” Because it’s such an embedded pattern it feels like your identity. You get a lot of mileage and attention from being sad and pessimistic. It’s familiar to you. So how could you possibly turn things around now? • Here’s the good news: you CAN bump up your happiness level. You CAN become a more optimistic person. Here’s how: Could you hang out more often with people who have an uplifting attitude. Can you start working out? Are you open to practicing gratitude? Why not change the accounts you follow on social media? Based on decades of research, all of these changes make you happier. • If you want to feel happier, don’t wait for it to come. It’s something you work for every day. Yes, even YOU can become happier. • --- • Subscribe to the channel here: / subscription_c. . • --- • Follow me here: • Instagram: / melrobbins • Facebook: / melrobbins • Website: http://melrobbins.com • Twitter: / melrobbins • --- • See where you can watch The Mel Robbins Show on TV here: https://www.melrobbinsshow.com • Or watch full episodes here: / melrobbinsshow • --- • Sign up for my weekly letter written to YOU at: https://melrobbins.com/newsletter/ • Get three free guides + my #MindsetReset program at https://melrobbins.com/mindsetreset/
