Why increase your optimism?

Optimism is one of most important emotional intelligence skills that you can develop. Being optimistic is not about being jolly or seeing the world through rose-tinted spectacles, rather, it is about being open to possibility and believing that there is a solution even when you don't know what it is.

Our brains are primed for survival, leading us to have a negative bias, tuning into anything that may be a potential threat. Consequently, our instinctive responses are linked to our short term protection and may not help us achieve our long term objectives. 

Being more optimistic enables us to:

• Build better relationships;
• Collaborative more effectively; and 
• Be more creative.

All of which will improve our productivity and well-being and enable us to perform optimally.

How it works...
