Glad to meet a fellow half glass full person! You might use the word eternal optimist! If you believe in something, you need to go for it and don't quit just because the glass half empty folks say it won't work!

In 2000, if the naysayers had their way saying we were going to lose to Gore in Florida, then we might have. Instead we had a group of people that believed we were right and didn't quit fighting.

I prefer to think in terms of a half full gas tank. If you need 3/4 of a tank full to get where you're going you'd better make some plans for the other 1/4 if you start out with only half a tank. Optimism by itself won't fill the tank, money and filling stations are going to be required.
