Social Sciences - Sports / Fitness / Recreation / How to be an optimist
English term or phrase: active self-direction of your own moment-to-moment perspective
Learn to shift your focus.
Pessimists can't stop depressing facts or negative thoughts from poking into their consciousness, but they can choose not to dwell on them.
If you look through a camera lens, you'll find that when one part of the picture is in focus, the other areas blur a bit. (This is a distortion, sure, but sometimes we need to sustain the idea of being in a protective bubble to feel optimistic.) {This active self-direction of your own moment-to-moment perspective} allows you to create a new life story, one in which you take charge of your emotions and actions.

时刻/随时自行调整自己的视角/着眼点
Explanation:
关注一点，其它部分就变得模糊而不那么明显了，以此使自己乐观。这样做是调整自己的角度，而不是看法，因为看到的还是全貌，只是着眼点或侧重点不同了，效果也就不同。
