National Look at the Bright Side Day

National Look At The Bright Side Day is an optimistic holiday that celebrates the power of looking at the positives of life, even in times of failure. On December 21, we come together to recognize the importance of staying positive.

History

The origin of this holiday is unknown, but it is believed to have been created by someone with an optimistic outlook. The term “optimism” emerged in the 18th century, which reflected the views of philosophers of that time. German thinker Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz proposed that all events in the world ultimately lead to something good. This idea was met with some skepticism, and so the word “optimism” was born to describe seemingly strange ideas.

Psychologically, being an optimist is beneficial. It means that a person is willing to accept all hardships and fight them rather than helplessly mourn the situation.

Interesting facts
