As you answer the questions, keep track of your score:

5 points = Yes, definitely

4 points = Yes, probably

3 points = Maybe

2 points = No, I doubt it.

1 point = No, definitely not.

 

 

Now add up your points and find out if you are an optimist or pessimist:

0-8 = Pessimist; you're down in the dumps - cheer up!

9-18 = Sometimes optimistic

19-28 = Middle of the road

29-38 = Occassionally optimistic

39 - 40 = Optimist - you're on top of the world!
