OK, most people know what a pessimist and optimist are, but few realize what a realist is. So here's an example that should explain it.
You put a glass 1/2 full of water and ask each of them how they see the glass of water:
Pessimist - that glass is 1/2 empty
Optimist - that glass is 1/2 full
Realist - it's a 1/2 glass of water.
Realists often see what is really there and not read into situation with their emotions. I'd like to say I'm a Realist with optimism. That's really the label I'm all about. I see things plainly, but lately I try to see the good in the situation, no matter how bad it may make my heart feel. But, it's a great way of seeing the world.
How about you? How do you see it?
