What are some of the best benefits of optimism? How do optimistic people think differently?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psychologist Martin Seligman has studied the science behind optimism and pessimism to understand these mindsets better. According to him, learning to be optimistic does more than simply boost your mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep reading to find out the four important benefits of optimism that improve your wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Benefits of Optimism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to Martin Seligman, optimists tend to generalize and personalize positive <\/em>events, which is one benefit of optimism, in general. <\/strong>When something good happens, they think it\u2019s because of their own abilities, or simply because good things always happen to them. Conversely, when something bad happens, they see it as a temporary setback due to external causes\u2014they\u2019ll say something like, \u201cThings didn\u2019t work out this time<\/em>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: According to Dweck, the opposite of a fixed mindset<\/a> is a growth mindset<\/a>. In simple terms, someone with a growth mindset<\/a> believes that people can <\/em>change; they can improve their skills and their attitudes in order to make positive changes in the world around them. A growth mindset goes hand-in-hand with optimism because someone with a growth mindset will see problems as temporary setbacks\u2014challenges to overcome\u2014instead of fixed and unchangeable truths about the world.)  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from giving us a generally improved mood and outlook on life, Seligman says that the benefits of optimism include concrete improvements to your health and wellbeing<\/strong>, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1: Reduced Stress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pessimism is extremely stressful: We blame ourselves for problems and, at the same time, assume that there\u2019s nothing we can do about them. Switching to a more optimistic mindset greatly reduces that burden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Stress is known to cause health problems<\/a> ranging from insomnia to heart disease. Reducing stress is one of the surest ways to live a longer and healthier life.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2: Stronger Friendships<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another benefit of optimism is that optimists are generally more pleasant to be around than pessimists. Furthermore, optimists are more likely to work at staying connected with people and keeping their friendships strong, while pessimists are more likely to lose touch with people and give up on maintaining those relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Studies have found that having three to five strong friendships<\/a> is better for your mental health than splitting your time among a lot of acquaintances\u2014in other words, when it comes to friendship, quality is more important than quantity<\/a>. So, if you\u2019ve got a few good friends, you should feel optimistic about your social life.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3: Higher Failure Resilience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Remember that optimists generally assume that things go badly because of temporary and external reasons. That mindset means they\u2019re much more likely to try again after they fail, because they see their initial failure as just bad luck rather than some personal shortcoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Even if you did fail because of a personal shortcoming, that very failure might give you the extra strength or knowledge that you need to succeed next time. Navy SEAL William H. McRaven illustrates this point in Make Your Bed<\/em><\/a>: During SEAL training, McRaven consistently fell behind the other cadets in swimming, and he was punished for it with extra exercise. However, during his final test, McRaven finished first in swimming\u2014his repeated failures, and the extra work that came with them, had made him the strongest swimmer in the group<\/a>.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4: Improved Performance in All Areas of Life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pessimists aren\u2019t likely to put forth their best effort. After all, if things aren\u2019t going to go their way anyway, then why bother? Conversely, a benefit of optimism is that optimists will usually try their best\u2014on the assumption that things will <\/em>go their way\u2014and perform better overall as a result, including in areas like sports, school, work, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: This increased performance helps optimists achieve a better work-life balance<\/a>. Optimists are also better at achieving work-life balance<\/a> because they don\u2019t tend to spend their free time dwelling on past mistakes or dreading the coming workday. Therefore, an optimist can fully enjoy his or her free time, then return to work feeling rested and fulfilled.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
