Optimistic or pessimistic? Which one are you, and why? Give an example.
I would confidently say that I am an optimist. This is because I am someone who always has very high self-confidence when I do something, and because of my confidence, I can even influence those around me to follow my will.
I am also stubborn because I never follow orders from others that don't benefit me. This makes me sometimes disliked by some people who have malicious intentions to trap me in their lives. However, because I am very confident, I never listen to what they say, allowing me to continue living my daily activities according to my wishes.
And with my self-confidence or the optimistic attitude that I have, I can also succeed in doing many things that make my life seem easier than other people, because with the self-confidence that I have, I also don't like listening to negative opinions from other people who want to make me suffer mentally. If I know that I am right and what I do is on a positive path, then I will treat every negative thing that happens to me as the wind passing by, that's how strong my self-confidence is now.
And I also like to hear constructive criticism from other people so that my self-confidence that is too high doesn't make me make mistakes that I'm not aware of, but I also maintain the boundary of not believing everything people say that is detrimental to me.
One example of my optimism is when I believed in myself and believed I could speak in front of the camera to make TikTok videos. Despite receiving a lot of ridicule and criticism from some people, with my optimism, I managed to build a TikTok account with a growing number of followers. What made me brave enough to appear in front of the camera was knowing I could do it even without the help or support of others.
