| A Trait Worth Cultivating October 6th, 2024 by Bill Boyajian |
Optimism is a trait worth cultivating that helps you develop other virtues. It certainly far outweighs its counterpart, pessimism. Optimistic people are generally cheerful and happy. They see the glass half full, not half empty. They are often more social and consequently more popular. Optimists are usually adaptable and capable of dealing with difficulties that others find daunting. And the health benefits for optimistic people tend to be quite favorable to the alternative. Optimists often take better care of themselves in what they eat, how they exercise, and what they fill their minds with. This in turn helps them sleep better and leads to a greater likelihood of living longer. Optimists aren’t just the creative people or entrepreneurial giants we read about. They are ordinary people who share a peaceful and positive outlook on business and life. The good news is, you aren’t trapped in pessimism for life. We can all learn to be more optimistic. We can practice being mindful of others, taking a more optimistic look at each challenge we face, and forming a resistance to things that get us down. Optimism is a virtue worth cultivating, and it can start right now.

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
