They found that people who are strongly pessimistic about the future are at greater risk of dying — on average, two years earlier — than those who are not pessimists, but contrary to previous studies, being an optimist didn’tThe key feature of these results is that the researchers employed two separate scales to measure pessimism and optimism and their association with the causes of death.
Previous research also has shown that pessimism is more deadly than optimism. A study of 2,800 heart patients in thereported that those who were optimistic about their heart disease were more likely to live 15 years longer than those with a pessimistic outlook. Heart patients pessimistic about their condition were 30% more likely to die during the study period. And a 2019 Boston University study tracked 69,744 women for 10 years and 1,429 men for 30 years.
When your focus is narrow , you build up blind spots of negativity without realizing it. The key to widening your mental scope is to replace your “zoom lens” with a “wide-angle lens” and think about the big picture. Known as broaden-and-build, research by Barbara Frederickson at the University of North Carolina, shows that an enlarged perspective allows you to see more of life's opportunities that your zoom lens clouds out and to have more positive emotions andfor the many joys in life.

brtherapist As for the caption, I’m pessimistic in a way that reaaaallllyy causes a risk to reduced lifespan and you should probably use a different caption, or the writer should use different words, if impacting pessimists is the goal
brtherapist And? If one is a pessimist, why would they want any extra time?
