Episode description

We all know that optimism is a good thing.  And in life, there is indeed much to be optimistic about.  But the world can also be a cruel place, and the realities of life can sometimes be harsh.  So what exactly does it mean to be optimistic?  Is there such thing as a healthy dose of pessimism?  Is it better to veer on the realist side of life and be pleasantly surprised when things go your way, or is having an optimistic outlook the key to a happier and more meaningful life?  Bill Burke, founder of The Optimism Institute, joins the podcast.
