Summary:

Water tastes better from a glass half full, it just does. It’s somehow clearer and crisper and more refreshing. You know what, life is better when it’s lived with optimism and positivity, it just is. There are a lot of reasons that this is true.

Optimistic people, they’re more resilient. People who view their lives with joy and optimism about the future, they can bounce back after a small obstacle or even a huge failure in their life. They somehow rise again, they look towards tomorrow with peace and anticipation. They don’t dread the future.

Optimistic people attract other optimistic people into their circle. They like to be around others who share the same attitude toward the world and to life in general. They crave positive energy and they’re not going to spend any time around negative people.

Optimistic people, they appreciate challenges. We need difficulties and even pain to grow, to become stronger, to become the people we were created to be. If every day were sunny we wouldn’t know how to dance in the rain.

Optimistic people have more fun. When you approach each day with a smile and with the expectation that good things are going to happen, they more often do.

Optimism gives you reasons to smile, to laugh, to have fun even in the smallest of joys which many pessimistic people totally overlook.

Life is more beautiful when we appreciate it. Just like a glass half full of water, life is more amazing and wonderful when we see the good in it. When we choose to appreciate goodness, it shows up all around us. When we choose to count our blessings, we find them. When we choose to see the best in other people we’re reminded how kind this world can actually be.

I choose to see my glass as half full, not half empty. Even though I have challenges, I feel down some days and face big failures I know it’s all part of my life. Some days I get sad and lose my temper or mess up on a project, I get over it and I commit to doing better the next time. I choose to live this way and it’s the only way I see it’s really working in the long run.

Abraham Hicks quoted “In optimism there is magic. In pessimism, there is nothing.”

When we view our glass as half full, we know we’re blessed. We know life is amazing, even with all the disappointments and the hurdles. We know this is okay and it’s part of the perfect plan in this amazing unfolding story called life.

Friends here’s to a day not only half full, but overflowing with goodness.
