The ability to see the "glass half full" helps us to live more fully and happily and still doing well in health. Discover how you can develop this -  and become more positive.

Optimists also enjoy better health. Research shows that this way of looking at life decreases the chances of cardiovascular diseases occur and improves the immune system response.

 According to the medical school of Harvard, pessimistic men have twice the chance of developing any heart disease in relation to three times more optimistic and to have hypertension.

 Some people are naturally positive. For them, it comes easy, they think on the good side of things without effort.. But others do not. 

But anyway, how?

 We need to understand, first, that being optimistic is not synonymous with ignoring reality.

 "Being optimistic includes knowing yourself and the variables that control our behavior,  also know the limits and understand that there are problems in the world,"

  The pessimist is seen as someone more down to earth, but that's not the whole truth.

 You can see the reality with good eyes and at the same time 

without costumes.
