Could it be that failure is the same as being pessimistic? It could, because too much failure could start one to thinking they are worthless. This is not a bad thing however as I feel that it would make them to strive harder to be accomplished the next time. There is both good in bad as there is bad in good.
I personally have failed at many things and still today fail in many but there are things that I am better at than others as I accomplish and they fail. I feel there is a balancing between failure and accomplishment, failure can be positive and accomplishment can be negative. One who wins all the time is sure to be a failure when something goes wrong as to one who fails often is sure to never give up. One who never gives up is sure to be accomplished. This is where the pessimistic and optimistic views come in to play. One who is optimistic all the time is sure to fail when they have a pessimistic thought and one who is pessimist is sure to feel happiness like no other would when they have an optimistic thought. I could write a long time on this article trying to show how failure and pessimistic thoughts could turn out to be a good thing and how total winning and optimistic thoughts could turn out be a set up for failure but instead I will shorten it to say; Should you find one who is failing because of a pessimistic thought and they admit to it, give them a new way to look at things.
For sure your failure is a positive attribute because you have already seen that you are optimistic about your pessimistic ways. Once they realize they have a positive attribute, their failures become accomplishments because they now realize their failure or failures have been the strongholds keeping them in the game.
