“Your fuel for your future should be irrational optimism" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Fuel your day with irrational optimism. In fact, you should nurture an insane optimism, similar to how farmers must be insanely optimistic in the face of industry volatility.

Here's why you need to embrace insane optimism:

  • Maintaining your optimism requires you to filter out the noise of raging headlines and other negative things
  • You should not let volatility reshape your attitude or let noise cloud the opportunities around you
  • My optimism is grounded by the trends I observe in our rapidly changing world, and spotting opportunities in those trends
  • You must consciously choose optimism over pessimism despite the environment you find yourself in - because the alternative isn't that great!
  • Optimism is your fuel for your future - without it, you're running on empty
  • Find something to do that fuels your optimism. Writing my daily inspirational posts helps me dispel bad things and find the good in the world
  • Anyone focused on the future cannot do so with a foundation of negativity - recognize that reality and ground yourself within it
  • Regularly nurturing your optimism is like fertilizer for your soul
  • You must battle daily to keep your optimism intact against the forces trying to tear it down
  • Despite challenges, it's a great time to be alive, with accelerating science, healthcare, connectivity, and knowledge growth
  • Avoid surrounding yourself with negativity and those who consistently focus on the downside
  • Innovative organizations succeed with positive energy for new ideas and a culture of relentless optimism
  • Great ideas never flourish when pessimists are in control of the conversation
  • An uplifting, hopeful view serves as the best antidote to negative thinking and losing sight of opportunities
  • Surround yourself with like-minded optimists who focus on what can be accomplished rather than what should be avoided
  • Optimism is one of the most precious resources that you must nurture, feed, let loose, and guard carefully
  • Hope and optimism are among the few commodities in the world right now that are more precious than others
  • Hope is the foundation of how you align yourself with your future and turn it into an opportunity
  • Hope serves as the bedrock for innovative thinking and the platform for your enthusiasm
  • In times of volatility, you must battle continuously to keep your hope intact
  • Optimism is your opportunity - it opens doors that pessimism keeps locked
  • Those who exude a positive outlook are typically on the path to success, as people are drawn to great energy and motivational thinking

The choice is yours: fuel your day with irrational optimism, or let the noise drag you down. Be optimistic about your optimism!

Futurist Jim Carroll always tries to skew to the optimistic side of the day!
