Seems that i have a negative outlook about things given these circumstances.
I had fair weathered friends, they are not happy when i achieve something.
I can't adapt to any enviroment with plastic people..and they are everywhere.
I'm bothered by the fact that people nowadays are too competitive, so its hard for me to trust people.

You know what..... do something that makes you really really happy. If you manage to stay happy, these things wouldn't even cross your mind.
It's only when you are upset or down that negative thoughts & feelings keep popping up.

Throw the TV into the dumpster. It is the most negative and pessimistic appliance in the house and will do nothing but fill you full of depression and false ideas about life. Then, go out into the streets with Jesus in your heart and do some real good.

Start by living your life only for yourself, let go of the crap in your past, toss the plastic friends, ignore the competition.
Remember there's only a competition if you want to be in it, discover what you love to do & go do it.
When you're happy the rest will come to you!

write a gratitude list. Things could always be worse, which is in itself pessimistic, but it can be spun to confuse us into believing that things will get even better. Good luck. You'll need it. just kidding. Jesus is really the answer... I just need help with the application.

In order to become more optimistic you should choose a better class of friends; stop worrying about competing with everyone; and, above all, take time out of each day to give thanks for the blessings that you have.

Get happy within yourself first. You will never be optimistic or at peace until you are comfortable in your own skin.

it probably sounds simple and naive...but choose to be. make up your mind when you get out of bed that you are going to have a great day, accomplish great things, and meet great people. and then do it!

Why would you want to be optimistic? If it really means that much to you, there're pills you can take.

Sing the song - 'Don't worry, be happy'
