		<description>Thanks, Lee -
...and yes, the blog does, and will include more, &quot;exercises&quot; that take readers step-by-step through the learning process for changing pessimistic outlook to optimistic, and negativity to heartfelt positivity, all with the goal of being more energized, productive, creative and resilient writers. A great place to start - and the building block of Martin Seligman&#039;s &quot;Learned Optimism&quot; is right here: http://theirrepressiblewriter.com/2009/11/09/how-to-dispute-pessimistic-thinking/</description>

		<description>Hi Carol,
congratulations on the blog and on creating a truly unique niche for yourself - I&#039;m fascinated to see what you come up with!  I hope there are some &quot;exercises&quot; sprinkled in so we can get our metaphorical hands dirty with practicing optimism!
And I&#039;m delighted you&#039;re part of the comment challenge - see, it&#039;s already working.  I&#039;m here, and commenting!
Namaste, and happy commenting,
