Optimistic or Pessimistic?

I, for one, still come out on the side that if given a choice, I would rather be born naturally too optimistic than born naturally more pessimistic.  Why?  Seeing a situation as negative as it really is would steal me of the moments I might have to enjoy those around me or see the beauty that is before me.  In the end, the negative outcome may be the realistic outcome -- but at least I had more time to create joy before it occurred.  I don't believe I could do that if I was more pessimistic.  See if you agree with Tali Sharot in this Ted video.


If you were given a choice of being more optimistic or more pessimistic, which would you choose?
