Inspiring the Next Generations to be More Optimistic

TEDxDurango
• November 2019
Juan David's passion and worry about Optimism is what led him to write a book with a Georgetown professor about this topic and the next generations. I realized that my generation and most of the population are shifting to be more pessimistic. In fact, my generation (Z) is the most pessimistic generation in the history of the world. For me, that is something that is super crazy and I knew I needed to do something about it and take action.
My hope with this talk is that people learn more about Optimism, the science of why we tend to be so negative, which is so interesting. I also hope to instill the same sort of passion and excitement that I have for optimism and perspective. Ultimately, I want this talk to be seen as a tool to help people take advantage of living an optimistic life.
