Fake Optimism isn't Necessary

help with finances leslie householder’s posts overcoming adversity Mar 25, 2016

When you begin studying the laws of success, it's easy to believe that you have to maintain an optimistic mindset all the time in order for the principles to “work.”

But the truth is—constant optimism isn’t necessary. In fact, it’s not even realistic.

It’s okay (and honestly, essential) to feel down now and then.

Without emotional dips, you wouldn’t recognize or appreciate the good days when they come. Even the hard times have hidden blessings. Across the world, people are cutting back on excess and focusing more on what truly matters:

Family. Faith. Hope.

So if it takes a rough economy to help us re-center, then maybe—even that—is something to be grateful for.

The world is full of illusions. Right now, many are being tested: Will they cling to truth and choose abundance, no matter how things look on the outside? Or will they let fear and discouragement steal what could have been theirs?

So how’s your battle going?

Every single person goes through seasons of discouragement. That includes the ones you admire. Even those who seem to be thriving right now.

Discouragement is simply part of life. But the difference between those who rise and those who fall under the weight of it often comes down to one thing:

Their thoughts in the heat of the battle.

It’s easy to be optimistic when everything’s going well.

But it’s when life feels impossible that the true winners emerge.

What do they know that maybe you don’t?

The hardest part is thinking optimistically when things aren’t going well. You might try to stay positive, but if that positivity isn’t backed by understanding and real knowledge, it ends up feeling fake—and worse, it can even become destructive.

Don't let fake optimism destroy you.

You can't just hope and pray things will work out. You can’t just repeat affirmations and expect miracles. What you need is solid knowledge—something that gives you real reason to believe things will be okay.

There is a way to know. And it’s not about just deciding you’ll “make it happen.”

Here’s the good news: Some of the greatest personal victories of all time are born out of the darkest circumstances. If you’re going through something really tough right now, then you might just be in the perfect position for a breakthrough—IF you start making your daily decisions based on the principles I teach.

If you're ready to rise above the stress and begin building the life you were meant to live, let me introduce you to the Mindset Mastery Program.

“I can’t even describe what an amazing miracle this course has been in my life. Everything has changed and I am a completely different person from when I started this journey in January. I went from a happy, but blah, letting-life-take-me-where-it-will-and-be-happy-with-it person, to a vigorous and excited, let-me-partner-with-God-in-creating-miracles person. My husband is overwhelmingly excited to see this change in me and seriously awesome things are happening. I never would have imagined 8 months ago when I was sitting in my dingy apartment that I would be in a house on an amazing adventure with so many exciting dreams and achievable goals! TAKE THIS COURSE, it will change your life. I tell everyone that I can about it. Thank you Leslie and Trevan!”

There is no greater gift you can give your family than the gift of HOPE. And it starts with you.

You might be the only person around you who’s even remotely interested in this kind of information. Don’t wait for someone else to catch the vision first—you may very well be your family’s only hope.

There’s a reason you were drawn to this. A reason you are still reading. Maybe it’s because you’re the one best equipped to lead by example, to inspire change simply by the way you live.

You won’t have to say a word. They’ll see it. They’ll feel it. And they’ll naturally want to know what changed.

So, what is the Mindset Mastery Program?

It’s a 12-week course that walks you, step by step, through two powerful phases.

  • Phase 1 helps you experience measurable success with a small, non-threatening goal—one that doesn’t trigger your old limiting beliefs. This gives you confidence.

  • Phase 2 guides you through setting and achieving a bigger, more life-changing goal—something that feels almost impossible right now.

We work together to rewire your brain and build the success habits you need—not just for this goal, but for every meaningful goal you'll pursue from now on. That’s why so many students take the course more than once. After hitting their first big goal, they’re eager to use it again for something even bigger.

The process stays the same. You just become more capable each time through.

And here's the beautiful part: you'll notice new insights the second time—principles you didn’t even see the first time around. Why? Because you weren't ready for them yet. That’s how personal growth works.

(And thank goodness for that. If we saw it all at once, it would be overwhelming. You know that exhausted-but-inspired feeling you get after a major insight? The kind that makes you want to take a nap afterward? That’s real.)

So give your family the gift of hope. I don’t mean buying them the program—although that’s great, too—but if YOU are the one who’s hungry for this, then invest in it for yourself. Lead the way.

Hope is contagious. As you shift, they’ll feel it. As your life transforms, so will theirs.

And if money’s tight right now, you have two options: try to stretch it and hope it holds out, or invest in learning how to multiply what you do have.

Have faith in yourself. You’ve got everything you need to win.

When everything else feels shaky, trust in principles. They don’t change. They give you peace, direction, and confidence to take the next step.

Let me help you find that peace.

To your success,

Leslie Householder
