Optimism is macro.

The reason for many of you having to struggle with your optimism is because of two things.

You mistake optimism for being positive and you’re looking on the wrong scale. Let me explain.

Optimism is a long term game. It’s a macro perspective. It’s being patient with yourself and the people around you. It’s being aware of that everything’s going to be all right.

Positive on the other hand, is a feeling. It’s a micro perspective. It’s feeling good about something. It’s a hype.

In order to become an optimist, you have to look at it on the macro.
