I haven't read the article yet, going there next, but I really like that last quote:
'“Find a happy person, and you will find a project.” - Sonja Lyubomirsky'
I think of people who often try to make an unhappy person their pet project. It would be an interesting twist to do the reverse. As a life-long pessimist I have made many happy people feel sad. Were these my projects?
Pessimists are people that default to expecting the worst outcome. I know happy pessimists and unhappy pessimists. People who have left a trail of many happy people feeling sad behind them are called assholes.
