Understanding optimism is fundamental to cultivating resilience in the face of life’s challenges. At its core, optimism is the belief that, despite the difficulties we encounter, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It is not merely a passive hope but an active engagement with life that empowers us to see possibilities rather than obstacles. This perspective can transform our responses to adversity, allowing us to navigate through hardships with a sense of purpose and hope. As we embrace optimism, we find strength in our ability to choose our reactions, even when circumstances seem overwhelming.

Free Download Bullshift: How Optimism Bias Threatens Your Finances (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CQ126HHT | 2024 | 6 hours and 53 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 371 MB
Author: John J. De Goey
Narrator: Justin Price
In Bullshift, John J. De Goey explores the hidden relationship between bias and financial markets. He makes clear that investors and financial advisers are not the rational decision makers that economic theory assumes them to be, and that "tried and true" investment advice is not always sound. De Goey shows that advisers are immersed in a culture of Bullshift-they simply don’t realize how their positive outlook on markets is based on industry-wide groupthink. Unfortunately, this problem affects much more than just your own investment portfolio. After three years of an international pandemic, the full economic impact of the response to it still hasn’t been felt. There’s more pain coming, but the financial industry’s eternal optimism, abetted by government policies designed to consistently encourage growth and avoid tough choices, is walking us toward a cliff for the global economy.

Free Download Hope: The Politics of Optimism By Simon Wortham
2019 | 184 Pages | ISBN: 1350105295 | PDF | 2 MB
A colourful map of the current conflict between pessimism and optimism in Western politics and theory, Hope attempts to reveal both the deep history and contemporary necessity of political hopefulness. Starting in the 17th century with Spinoza, Wortham tells the story of the various fallacies and insights of pessimism and optimism through the 18th century with the help of Kant and Voltaire through to the famously nihilistic writings of Nietzsche and the 20th century works of thinkers such as Benjamin, Arendt, Kristeva and Fanon (to name but a few). He explores the contemporary significance of ideas such as affirmation, sovereignty, violence, therapy, existentialism and, of course, the oft maligned notion of ‘hopefulness’ to create a politics of optimism which avoids the pitfalls of uncritical acceptance of the status quo or the newest political idea. Short chapters written in an engaging narrative manner enable the reader to follow the story of political optimism over the last 4 centuries inspiring a new way of thinking about the transformative uses of hopefulness.
