Speech Optimism How my optimism will help me press on to greater achievements in the future.

"A pessimist is one who makes difficulties of his opportunities, and an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties" -Harry S. Truman

How many of you have ever made a mistake? How many of you have learned from that mistake? You always have to keep your head up, and that's what an optimist is. I'm a glass half full kind of person. I will be telling you guys how being optimistic can help you in life. I'll tell you the personal benefits, it has personally helped me., How others will look at me, and how it'll help me in the long run.

I'm optimistic about anything. I went 24 hours without complaining, just one day, and I saw the bright side of things more. It also improved my overall mood. Instead of being grumpy, I was glee, insults will just bounce right off me. But, if I thought negative, it happened. I was grumpy, and the insults would hurt me more. I also have to have good karma. If I hope good for others, great things will happen to me. These are just a few of thousands, yes thousands, of reasons that I am optimistic. Let me tell you a story. When I was little, I let one punishment rule over me. Let's say I talked back to my mom. I received a punishment, let's say...no TV for the rest of the night. I would let that ruin the rest of my day and maybe even the next day. Now, I try to make an advantage of that. I do things maybe I wouldn't normally do. Maybe I'll do my chores early, so I can have a better weekend, or I do some kind of school project, at least start it. That's how being optimistic will help you helps me in my future.

Being optimistic helps me personally. Let's say your the type of person that's "glass half empty" that changes your a lot about you, and tells a lot about you to other people. If your negative, you have different friends from someone that is positive. You may also get depressed more, or get flustered more. But, if you are someone that is optimistic,like me, you have friends that are successful, and friends that make you better. You may see that things flow more your way. That's because you are positive, and what you think, comes true. But let's say you are negative, things won't fall your way. Negative things that you think happen! Let's say that you think that'll you'll fail a test. If you keep saying, "I'm going to fail that science test." You'll end up failing it, law of attraction. Always think positive. Say you'll ace that test, that you'll get a 100! Watch it come true. Being optimistic doesn't only help with test scores, it can help with anything. Anything that you want to succeed in, optimism will help.

Being optimistic is healthy. It is one of the best things to be. I no longer look on the negative side. My whole demeanor changed. My smile gets brighter everyday, and I rarely frown. People look at me like I'm important. More importantly, I feel important. I always smile, I feel that's what makes a person, their smile. I don't know anyone that is negative and smiles. Optimistic people have different smiles, in a way, it's not forced. Negative people force smiles, they aren't used to it..This will all help you in the long run. You'll feel confident, you'll look it. You'll attract everything you can ever desire, all because your positive about it.

This is how my optimism will help me in the future. I will need to stay positive in the future, for a job interview or anything for that matter. I need to always be postitive, not matter what is thrown at me, then I'll be the best I can be in. I always need to stay optimistic, it is what will carry me in life.
