Sometimes I think pessimists are optimists in disguise and vice versa

The pessimistic ones aren't going to be the ones all doomy and gloomy whether they are proven right or wrong. Acknowledgment of reality is clarity. Nothing more.

Agree, but keep your head up and shoulders back, regardless. Don't let anyone see you in defeated posture. They will feel dominant over you and we can't have that

And if things somehow happen, don't rub their face in it. Same deal. Confident and poised.

But rubbing their faces in it is the best part!
