What popped up in my clippings?  "The public can join Dennis Kleidon, author of “Unleash your Imagination . . . Transform your life,” for this two-part session through a journey of self-discovery. See how imagination, innovation and optimism can transform your life. This two-part session is free and open to the public from 10-11:30 a.m., Friday, March 17 and 24 at Unitarian Universalist Church—Surprise." I bought a copy of Dennis Kleidon's book "[Unleash Your Imagination: Transform Your Life](https://www.amazon.com/Unleash-Your-Imagination-Transform-Life-ebook/dp/B09WJRGTKX)" and was delighted! Dennis writes, "I approach life with a very positive and optimistic spirit, knowing that, in the end, it will all be fine. Nothing is ever as bad as it might seem, and nothing is ever as good as it might seem. But somewhere in the middle, one can find joy and happiness."

Living life with optimism and a positive attitude is essential to being able to control your vision and edit the things you are seeing. Fill your life with those things that are reinforcing and supportive of your values, principles and especially your goals. Believing is seeing. Your beliefs will guide what you are seeing and will help you differentiate the positive from the negative. Seeing can reinforce believing, but be careful what you allow yourself to see. If your beliefs are not strong enough, solid enough, the things that you see will have a strong influence on your beliefs. This is backward thinking."   "Optimism is essential to letting the imagination run wild. You must be confident that anything you dream, any desire begging to surface could be successful. Optimism allows you to proceed with confidence, experimenting and expecting that your efforts will not be wasted but will meet with success. Open the door to a vast array of possibilities. Optimism will allow you to choose freely and know that when the choice is made, there are real possibilities that your dreams will be achieved."   "The more we unleash our imaginations, recognize our own potential, and embark on a thoughtful pursuit of becoming our own best selves, the more we will feel the optimism, peace, and joy of that journey."   "Approaching life with optimism and a positive spirit is one of the most important elements. We must believe in our future. We must feel that what we are planning for our life will have positive outcomes. This will allow us to proceed with confidence and to unleash our dreams and desires without reservation. Being positive and optimistic will automatically set the stage for happy results. Will a positive spirit guarantee good results? Of course not. But, if we approach life with an optimistic and positive spirit, one thing is assured–we will enjoy the process along the way, whether we reach our goals or not."       [![Read More From Optimists on their Optimism](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/21889975/b28d9049-955d-4f8d-8209-f424430aad8b.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/21889975/b28d9049-955d-4f8d-8209-f424430aad8b) [Written by Victor Perton](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/blog/author/victor-perton) ##### Keep up to date with the latest from Centre for Optimism ##### We appreciate any contribution you can make to help us spread optimism with the world [![Give Today](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/21889975/daed54ec-1173-4b99-9390-e69152e87436.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/21889975/daed54ec-1173-4b99-9390-e69152e87436) #### Here are some similar articles ## Connect With Us ##### We love to connect with everyone who is ready to open up and share their optimisim. - [![Facebook 2](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/Center%20of%20Optimism%20Assets/Facebook%202.svg)](https://www.facebook.com/optimistsvoices/) - [![instagram (6)](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/instagram%20(6).svg)](https://www.instagram.com/centreforoptimism/?hl=en) - [![linked in 2](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/linked%20in%202.svg)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/centreforoptimism/) - [![youtube (3)](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/youtube%20(3).svg)](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFd4GnToz3WLasQSfsz_z8w) - [![twitter](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/twitter.svg)](https://twitter.com/Centre4Optimism) #### Keep up to date with the latest from The Centre for Optimism ##### Contact Us Call Us: [+61 417 217 241](tel:+61%20417%20217%20241) (Australia) PO Box 5081, Garden City, Victoria 3207, Australia ##### [The Centre for Optimism](https://www.centreforoptimism.com?hsLang=en) - [Why Optimism?](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/whyoptimism) - [What is Optimism?](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/whatisoptimism) - Why be Optimistic? - Our Advisory board ##### Our Research - What makes People Optimistic? - Transformation and Change - [The Better Normal](https://thecentreforoptimism.wildapricot.org/The-Better-Normal) - Strategy and Optimism ##### Join Us - Become a Patron - Join the Optimism Movement - Volunteer ##### [Services](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/workshop?hsLang=en) - [The Optimism Workshop](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/workshop) - The Optimism Roundtable - Beacons Of Optimism Workshop - [The Habits of an Optimist](https://www.projectoptimism.com.au/courses/optimism-can-be-learnt-the-habits-of-an-optimist/) ##### The Centre for Optimism - [Why Optimism?](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/whyoptimism) - [What is Optimism?](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/whatisoptimism) - Why be Optimistic? - Our Advisory board ##### Our Research - What makes People Optimistic? - Transformation and Change - [The Better Normal](https://thecentreforoptimism.wildapricot.org/The-Better-Normal) - Strategy and Optimism ##### Join Us - Become a Patron - Join the Optimism Movement - Volunteer ##### Services - [The Optimism Workshop](https://www.centreforoptimism.com/workshop) - The Optimism Roundtable - Beacons Of Optimism Workshop - [The Habits of an Optimist](https://www.projectoptimism.com.au/courses/optimism-can-be-learnt-the-habits-of-an-optimist/) ©2026 The Centre for Optimism - Privacy Policy - Terms and Conditions ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Victor Perton", "url" : "https://www.centreforoptimism.com/blog/author/victor-perton" }, "dateModified" : "2023-03-12T20:42:40.373Z", "datePublished" : "2023-03-12T20:42:40.000Z", "headline" : "Unleash Your Imagination and Optimism: Dennis Kleidon", "image" : [ "https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/Unleash%20your%20imagination.jpeg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://www.centreforoptimism.com/blog/denniskleidon", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://www.centreforoptimism.com/hubfs/Centre%20for%20Optimism_Logo.svg" }, "name" : "The Centre for Optimism" } } ```
