--->Health Tip<---
Help for the Optimistically challenged. If a pessimistic attitude makes you worry about everything that can go wrong, try just the oppostie approach. Visualize everything that can go right. Another way to boost your optimism is to create a "success fantasy", in which you imagine yourself succeeding at a task you consider difficult. In your mind's eye, frame a picture of yourself being disappointed but not devastated if things don't go as you had hoped. "I'd rather be an optimist who's occassionally wrong than a pessimist who's always right."
