Why negative thinking can be positive Everybody thinks that it's better to be an optimist than a pessimist even pessimists think, of course). People always say Cheer up. Don't worry, be happy. Smile” But in fact theres kind of pessimism ~ called ‘defensive pessimism’ ~ that can lead to very positive results, according to Julie K. Norem, a professor of psychology at Wellesley College, Massachusetts, “Defensive pessimism isa strategy used in specific situations to manage anxiety, fear, and worry! says Norem, Studies show that 30 to 35 per cent of Americans use it to help them in theit lives, and they're often very successful people. Defensive pessimists think about future situations and prepare for them by imagining all the things that can go wrong, For example, ifa defensive pessimist has an important ‘exam, they think this ‘hen they look at each possible problem and plan how to avoid it So for the exam situation, they go to bed early and have a good night’ sleep: they find out in advance exactly ‘where the exam is; they eat a good breakfast, and take lots of pens and pencils, and a bottle of water; and they leave home carly. That puts them in control, and it means that the exam will be better than for an optimist, who just thinks ‘Ob, everything willbe fine!” Because sometimes everything goes, ‘wrong, and it’s good to be prepared. pted from a US website © Complete these sentences from the article with the same word, 1 tlh go tothe place. 2.
