Realistic Optimism Another Aspect of Positive Thinking
Motivational speakers and self-help books often tell us to believe in ourselves and that success will come to us on its own. Such messages and conversations often attract a lot of people but it does not tell them what it takes to be successful and how the meaning of success can be different for everyone. Visualizing that you can be successful is only one aspect of positive thinking but unfortunately, most speakers and books don’t tell you the other extremely important aspect of it i.e. realism.
