Galeniko I kind of agree with you - but it's only 50 percent of the puzzle. There are outside factors that you can't "positive" away.
Be positive on the insight and strive forward... but in reality, what other chance do you have...?

you can control the amount of effect outside factors have on you

for instance

 a pessimist who loses his job might think thats my career fucked

an optimist would look at it as an opportunity to try something new

slef belief and positivity can carry you a long way

You can't be upbeat and happy all the time. Overload in dopamine. The one who are or seem like it are usually fake. And when adversity comes they crash hard. In to drugs or other.

After rain comes sunshine. That's how the human psyche is intended to work.

have you ever thought whats the reason why you think everything in life sucks etc?

is it the world or is it an inner issue with yourself?

is it you want more moneys?youll adapt to that, be;ieve me.

why are you unhappy?

what has caused to shut you down, your ambitions, your will to have fun and enjoy life?

do you think if you carry on like this, and it gets worse and worse, do you think such a life is worth living?

im not saying any names, itd be too long list and i dont mean this personal, theres many ppl with this outlook out there.

when was life any good and what changed it for the worse?

in general,i see this occuring in ppl who are often on the internet, the mindless pll who just go out,they dont give a fuck.theyre better off imo.

why is it that ppl instead of encouraging other s to get better, they try to drag others down to their own misery levels?

if that is the only thing that you rejoice in, its better to end it right now on the spot and kill yourself.

so yeah genuinely wondering, i have been to rock bottom and worse, but never turned negative.

the only thing i can come up with as reasoning is, its not the world,its the pessimist pl themselves,they not happy about themselves,theyre depressed to no end.

so?

Why are you so negative, pessimistic and cynic?

As far as anyone killing themselves, there's no sense in it. Death is going to come fast to all of us anyway. Let it come naturally and embrace it when your number is called...

This isn't sound reasoning: just because you're going to die anyway doesn't mean there aren't contexts when it might be optimal to opt out rather than let it occur naturally: for example, if an old person becomes incapacitated and doesn't want to live the rest of life in a hospital bed or in an otherwise diminished state.

yeah mate, i always think like that, so what if the job is lost, can sign up for the dole and find something "better" in the meanwhile.

i think id draw the line at cancer though

Life isn't innately enjoyable for me.

I could be in intense pain, I accept that. But I could also be dead.

Sometimes being dead seems like the favourable option to continuing to live.

But I'm trying to embrace your attitude galeniko, your emotional resolve is deeply admirable.It's how you frame things in your own mind that allows you to derive pleasure from an experience after all.

I remember something about Buddha saying a glass of water to a man dying of thirst in the desert tastes like heaven on earth. You compare that to a guy getting up from a couch to get a glass of water from the kitchen sink, and the water tastes no different, but the thirsty guy in the desert derives infinitely more pleasure from it. Ok now I understand you're thinking the guy is relieving his thirst, of course he's going to be happier with the glass of fucking water, but also in a perceptual sense the man in the desert has learned to truly appreciate that glass of water.

What am I saying here? That we need to learn to appreciate the little things. I'm trying to come around to that line of thinking.

In today's society it's easy to get focused on what we have *not*. We're constantly bombarded with images of people more beautiful than we are, with hotter girlfriends, more money, bigger dicks (if you watch as much shemale porn as I do (nah that's a joke, only the n**gers have bigger dicks than i do)), better friends, faster cars, access to higher quality cocaine (I just watch wolf on wall street; damn I was jealous of all the coke they were railing). The point is, the moment you become obsessed with what you do not have, is the moment you stop appreciating what you do have going for you.

And it's an easy trap to fall into, because there is always some girl who has it better than you do (or appears to).

Anyway, I'm going to stop rambling now. I had a shitty day. 3 weeks off and my first day is a 13 hour shift. Bleep bleep bleep all fucking day. I work on this crappy little island in a tiny hospital (because I'm a shitty doctor), and every nurse here is as ugly as sin. I busted my ass for years, you think the least I would get in compensation is some decent nurse pussy. I've cheered up a bit now anyway.
No matter how bad you feel things are theres always "I could be shizzo" to make it all better.

Yes true agreed...
