It means be optimistic not pessimistic :)
a pesamist. they see the glass as half empty instead of half full.
You would call the person a pessimist - they choose to see the glass as half empty rather than half full. But people who don't see the good in others usually have a reason for it - they are also cynical, probably due to something negative that affected them in their earlier life. These people just need someone to see the good in them. Misanthrope would work too. A misanthrope is someone who dislikes, or detests, humanity, and their society or culture. A misanthrope may believe nothing good comes of human nature, for example.
I think responsibility is a great way of building self esteem as well as avoiding the negatives. Being trusted with a responsible task and being of service to others is an excellent way of recognizing one's self worth. I try to hold positive thoughts daily: instead of the glass being half empty, I consider the glass to be half full. Maintaining an 'Attitude of Gratitude' !
An optimistic view is characterized by a hopeful and positive outlook, focusing on opportunities, and believing that things will ultimately turn out for the best. In contrast, a pessimistic view tends to be more negative, expecting the worst to happen and dwelling on problems or obstacles. Optimism tends to generate motivation and resilience, while pessimism can lead to feelings of helplessness and discouragement.
"Semi-intelligent" typically refers to a level of intelligence that falls between low and high intelligence. It may imply a limited ability to understand, learn, or problem-solve compared to fully intelligent individuals. It can be context-specific and subjective in its interpretation.

It depends if you want your cup to be half-full or half-empty. half-full is 2 half cups half-empty is 2 empty cups

You cannot "fill" to make anything "Full" unless you have an empty glass. knowing it was empty first, you could easily say its half empty. It was empty first.Ok now it has water in it. only half. it ain't half full unless it started full, then was emptied some. but you normally receive half of what youre looking for. Scientifically, its half empty.
If you are drinking from it its half empty, if you are pouring it, the glass is half full.
if the glass has been drunk from full to half then it is half empty and if u only filled the glass half way wouldn't it b half full!

The unopened soda can is neither half empty nor half full, as its contents have not been consumed or measured yet.
They are basically asking if someone is choosing to be an optimist or a pessimist. If a glass is half full there are 2 ways of seeing it; as being either half empty or half full. An optimist would view it as being half empty (THATS WRONG), but a pessimist would see it as being half full (OTHER WAY AROUND) so that they can have something to complain about. Asking if a glass is half empty or full is a test of your attitude and personality. If you answer the question with half empty that means you see things more negative. If you answer half full it says you look at things more positive. No answer is the right answer. If you want your answer to be half full when you believe it's half empty than you can't change your point of view. Stick with your original answer, no one will care. :0) DT Wrote: who ever wrote above made a mistake. Pessimist will view glass as half empty, Optimist would see it as Half Full as in almost full just a little more to go. Stuff in Quotations is MINE!
Half full. If you look at it as just a glass with water in it then that's what it is. If you put meaning into it then the glass will always be completely full. How full do you want your glass?
He could be either. This is the same kind of question as the half full/half empty glass. In truth, the glass is both half full and half empty.
