Life Satisfaction and Optimism: Elyse Nijsse
"When we talk about life satisfaction, optimism has been found to be the highest performing factor. That means if you have a more positive outlook on life, you are likely to have a much more satisfied life." 😊
The wisdom of Elyse Nijsse, Psychosocial Safety Specialist, and my valued former colleague at Yarra Valley Water 💦
I asked Elyse what makes her #optimistic and speaking from the beach at Streaky Bay on the land of the Wirungu People, Elyse told us, "You can walk down the street up to any stranger and ask them what they do for their mental health and they will have an answer for you. If you look back ten or fifteen years that would not be the case, they would have been too embarrassed to talk about such a topic or they would not have understood what their mental health is. We have brought the conversation so far forward that people not only understand their mental health but they value it deeply. And that makes me optimistic!"
What makes you optimistic?
