If you read this blog regularly you know that I am a big believer in the power of optimism. I always advise my career coaching clients to choose optimism. It helps build your self confidence, and it helps you create a successful and fulfilling life and career.
This article makes a convincing case about the power of optimism — and it provides you with some solid ideas on how you can become more optimistic.

I really like the fourth piece of advice in the article — “Think carefully about the things you tell yourself.” My CareerHMO coaching colleagues and I always advise our clients to avoid negative self talk. Negative self talk is an optimism and confidence killer.
Think and speak positively about yourself. Doing so will put you in a success frame of mind. Positive self talk = optimism. Negative self talk = pessimism. And you know what they say…
Optimists are right, so are pessimists.
So why not choose optimism and put yourself in a positive place?
Your career mentor,
Bud
