"Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier." -- Colin Powell, former U.S. Secretary of State
While you may not help being pessimistic, being an optimist will get you much farther in the office. It will help you get through the day easier, keep you motivated, and help you avoid the time-suckers complaining in the break room.
Being an optimist will also bring positive help to your side. Need help with an order or a favor from customer service? People are more likely to help a positive, optimistic person than someone who freaks at the slightest problem because they can only see the negatives. In addition to the help you'll get, your clients will be impressed with the team you've assembled that's more than willing to help them when necessary.
