Are you optimistic about the near future?

A little bit. I've lost 15 lbs. so far this year and feel good about myself. I don't think it'll translate into much, but feeling healthier tends to lead to healthier habits, and with healthier habits comes things like confidence, motivation, and positive moods.

I mostly plan on going on hikes in the near future, and that's good enough for me. I'm not a person that needs or wants a lot

Focused on the present cause thinking about the future isn't something I like.
So I just let things unfold and live day by day

I try to be optimistic in general. But the world has a way of dimming that view. All of that being said, I am looking forward to the work day being over, a nice St. Patrick's day evening and of course the weekend.

Not thinking about. Want to stay in in the current space and time.

yep, I'm optimistic that the world will literally implode from all the constant bullshit... 🤔

Not sure
It’s a bit concerning

I am. I am getting back into my career field.

I try to be

I’m always optimistic about the near future. Let’s see— I’m having an academic paper published soon, I’m in the running for a cool job, I’m entering my first running race in years soon, I’m planning a summer vacation to Iceland, — is that enough?

I am looking forward to things in the near future but I still feel anxious about what is going on in our lives and the world in general.

I'm looking forward to seeing my "big brother" getting his ass wooped...

I doubt so

Somewhat. I'm optimistic for this year, not the near months

nope. I'm highly pessimistic. 😃

Kinda.
