t it's worth cultivating. Even when life deals us blows, maintaining an upbeat attitude takes effort yet pays dividends. My intention in authoring this book was to inspire at least one person to transform pessimism into optimism. Negativity is draining, while positivity energizes. Though persevering isn't always easy, focusing on the bright side lightens our load. My son beat the long odds by staying hopeful. Despite being given a 1% chance of survival at birth, he now uplifts others at his day program, urging them to keep trying. His example motivates me- and hopefully you, dear reader - to meet adversity with faith. By striving to see the good, we can unlock our potential. Progress requires patience, but each small step brightens the way. Stay positive.
