Day 74: The Happy Dance (Part 2)

Brent Payne September 14, 2023

Yesterday, you tested your happiness. Today’s exercise is about your optimism. Are you a glass-half-empty or a glass-half-full person? Think about this week and last week. Can you identify times when you reacted optimistically to a situation? How about pessimistically? How has optimism affected your life in general? How about pessimism? Dig deeply and answer these questions, then record your thoughts in your Journal.
