Hey guys! So I like to think  of myself a a pretty positive thinker.

最上級形容詞

But, at the same time,  a lot of the closest people

to 不定詞

"Why can't you see the glass half  full instead of half empty for once?"

By the way, that saying is  not always true because

it depends on what the glass is filled with.

If the glass is half-full  with spoiled milk, it's probably more

I'm not gonna lie--sometimes  the things I say can be

For example, whenever I took  final exams in high school,

I would always assume I got  the lowest grade possible

just so I could mentally prepare  myself in case I failed.

Or when I was wrestling  for a State Championship,

Whenever I would try to prepare  myself to ask out a girl,

I would think of every single way  that I would be rejected

so I would know how  to react in that scenario.

Which consequentially made  me not know what to do

when they said "yes" and that made it super awkward.

But, anyway, whenever I voiced  these opinions to my friends

or family, they would always  criticize me for being "negative".

And I'm sure you guys can relate to this.

We all know that one friend  or family member

that's Mr. or Mrs. Positive and gets on everybody's case

whenever you say the slightest bit  thing that's a little bit negative.

even my closest friends  and family, is that I'm actually

Like, overly positive! Just in my own head.

In my head, I see the glass half full, even when it's empty.

I pretty much tell myself how  to see the good in every scenario

I just don't say these things  out loud because when bad things

happen to people and you're  overly positive, a lot of times

Thinking like this actually helped  me through a lot of tough times

But, again, I'm just giving  you guys these examples

so that you can see how I try  to stay positive in my own head.

Trust me, you don't want to say  these things out loud.

My thought process is no matter  how bad things get,

wherever there's a negative,  there has to be a positive.

I just found out my girlfriend's  been cheating on me.

And that's probably what I  would say in that scenario.

But it's not quite what I would be thinking.

Like I said, I'm an overly  positive person in my head

and this is what it would look like  if I said what I was really thinking.

Now you don't have to waste  anymore time wondering

I'm so sorry, bro. That's...that's so sad.

but my mind is messed up and I  would search for the positive,

- Hey, what's up, man? - My grandpa just passed away.

Sorry to hear that, man, but I guess everyone

I mean, if everyone lived  forever, we'd all be dead--

due to the exponential growth  of the human population,

we wouldn't have enough resources,  so in a way it's not

I can't believe someone had  the nerve to do that.

Somebody stole all her clothes  from the laundromat.

Damn, that sucks! I mean, who would even do that?

That means you have  really good taste in fashion.

See, technically, these  are all positive things,

but now you probably know why I'm telling you to keep this in your own head.

Having these overly-positive thoughts  didn't necessarily fix

any of the scenarios, but they  definitely help you to get through them.

And I know sometimes it's  hard to think positive
