Optimistic, Pessimistic, or Realistic ???
Which is the most right?? Some people said optimist thinking FTW, some people said realistic thinking is a smart thing to do.
What do i say? i say, well that's depend... Those three point of view has their own advantages and disadvantages
Optimistic thinking is great because they can see every tiny opportunities ahead of them. They can make us smile and always moving forward, no matter what's the condition ahead. BUT, too much optimist sometimes makes people dumb, trust other people easily without taking any precautions. When too Optimist people faced with problem, they're tend to wait. Because they believe that things will get better, and if they plan to do a thing, they wont be prepared for any side effect along their plan, thus doesn't know what to do when any trouble comes ahead.
Pessimist is cool because it can make us take any precaution, they see every potential problem and tried to find the solution for each problem even before the trouble comes. BUT it can get tiresome, why? because there're no such thing as a perfect plan, everything has it's own flawed and we can't focusing on that only. If we keep on seeing flaw on a plan, well it's endless. Pessimist also not good in taking chances and opportunities, they're afraid to fail, making them miss some experience in the world and even stuck on their places.
Realistic thinker is combining the Optimist and Pessimist as one. They see the advantages on optimist, they see negative side on a pessimist and measure them. If there are more advantages than consequences, they'll do the plan. It's a very economic point of view. BUT realistic people are lacking dreams, they didn't dare dream big because it's simply unrealistic to them. But life's is never predictable, life might give you something more than you planned to. Realistic people are also unable to see those sparks of opportunity that might turns to something big.
So.. based on that what i think is, each one has their own advantage and disadvantage. My conclusion is we can find a balance between these three. Mine are :
1. Think Positively, don't be afraid to fail
2. Prepared for the worst (Pessimist), find a solution to major potential problem
3. Plan Realistically, measure the advantages and disadvantages
Everything that's too much is never good, so find a good balance.
I hope you find that Balance!! :D
