Embrace Optimism

"embrace optimism"

Sound advice from Allison Aubrey

In "Don't let your resolutions wash away. Tips to turn a slow start into progress", Allison wrote, "Even if you're off to a slow start this year, embrace optimism. A study published in the Proceedings of the The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine found optimists live longer. There's literally a longevity boost to staying positive amid challenges. And what's the connection to resolutions? There's a strong link between optimism and healthy behaviors. Optimistic individuals tend to have goals and the confidence to reach them, the researchers conclude. Even if you have a tendency to see the glass half empty, research shows optimism can be learned by imagining your best possible self. Practicing optimism may make you better at it — and help you reach your goals."
