Optimisme

Optimism is a mental attitude characterized by the hopefulness and confidence about the future or the successful outcome of something. It involves the tendency to look on the bright side of situations, expecting positive results or believing that good things will happen. Optimists generally hold an expectation that challenges can be overcome and that circumstances will improve over time. This outlook can influence behavior, decision-making, and emotional well-being, often leading to greater resilience in the face of adversity. Optimism is considered a psychological trait and can significantly impact one’s overall happiness and life satisfaction.
