Negative disposition, or pessimism, refers to a tendency to focus on the negative aspects of situations and expect unfavorable outcomes. Individuals with a pessimistic outlook often see challenges as insurmountable and may struggle to find hope or motivation in difficult circumstances. This mindset can affect mental health, leading to feelings of anxiety and depression. Pessimism can also influence decision-making and relationships. Pessimistic individuals may avoid taking risks or pursuing opportunities due to fear of failure. This negative outlook can create a cycle of self-doubt and missed chances, further reinforcing their belief that things will not improve.
