    The Oxford English Dictionary defines optimism as having "hopefulness and confidence about the future or successful outcome of something; a tendency to take a favorable or hopeful view."  An optimist sees the glass as half full.  A pessimist (the opposite of optimist) sees the glass as half empty.
