My (LOT) Score

Improved Essays
My (LOT) score indicates that I have a high optimistic outlook in life.

They recover quickly from major surgeries due to their positive outlook and their determination. They are very productive at their work, and always accomplished their long or short term projects that they set out to do, because they are realistic about what they can or cannot do. They understand the value of working with a plan, despite all the challenge. Further research has shown that an optimist is more likely to have academic success, and lead healthier and happier lives.
