    I’m an INTP and I would say that I am generally optimistic. I don’t believe that it’s function of nurture, but rather a result of personality. Being optimistic doesn’t mean that I always ‘look on the bright side of life’, but that in general I expect things to turn out well, like they should. I’m a believer and know that God holds our lives in His control, He’s good, so for those of us who are believers everything works our for our good at the end of the day.

    Hi Jamae! That cracks me up — things will turn out well, “like they should.” Haha, I love that. And YES, faith ought to play a huge role in this question! Then optimism is no longer a matter of wishful thinking but rather hope.
