Optimism and Mindset

Optimism is a type of positive reasoning that includes the conviction that you are in control of your own happiness and that more good will continue to happen than bad. Optimists accept that terrible or antagonistic events are uncommon and that it isn't their fault when something bad happens, but rather the result of something external.

Your mindset is the collection of thoughts and convictions that shape your idea proclivities. Furthermore, your idea proclivities influence how you think, feel, and act. Your mindset influences how you perceive the world and yourself.
