Last episode we learned why the science of optimism matters in the face of difficulties and setbacks. This week we learn why it is also, and perhaps equally, relevant when things are going WELL. Sara teaches how optimistic thinking in the face of good things can enhance our overall life as well as our future outcomes. And most importantly, she teaches how to prompt our brain to think optimistically about good things. Bonus: Sara’s argument for why optimism is neither hypocritical nor unrealistic.
