I’m thinking pessimist could well discover solutions in ways solution orientated folk see through optimistic eyes..Two people regardless of attitude to the solutions, could well reach the same conclusion in time, just through different streams leading them to the same point.

Hi JustBe,

We are optimistic because we are optimizing the transformation of consciousness in and through each individual life, although most of Nature is doing this generally and unconsciously.

The sooner we recognize this as the purpose of life, and practice this consciously and deliberately, the more we can see and accelerate the truest possibilities of life actually becoming inevitable.

So really, optimism is the conscious recognition of and participation with true Life purpose....Self-discovery, Self-realization.

Conversely, pessimism is the unfortunate regressive identification with a conditional ignorance which veils the origin, action, and purpose of the Creation.
