Rational optimists, like myself, choose to take a positive stance on any given situation, but still focus on the reality of the given situation. Optimists tend to exaggerate the goodness of a situation while underestimating the actual badness that is present. Being rational yet positive about a situation allows one to analyze the predicament positively and see what good can be taken from it, while simultaneously recalling what has actually occurred and taking that realism into account.
