My latest guest post on the Psychology, Philosophy and Real Life blog is a bit contrarian. It’s called The Downsides of Optimism.
There is much in the blogosphere about how we should be positive and so on. I largely (but don’t entirely) agree with this. So I wanted to put the other side of the story. I think sometimes optimism leads us to not plan adequately and to be insensitive to others.
Let me know what you think. All comments are welcome even from pessimists or even cynics (among whom I have been known to be numbered). Looking forward to hearing from you, Evan.
