Optimism is not apathy towards the negative things in our world, optimism is facing difficult things and overcoming them

Last Monday, at The Tesla Show in Ada Mall, author Ellis Oswalt presented to the public his new book titled Tesla's Words. His book presents to the reader new and never before published interviews of one of the most famous inventors and scientists ever - Nikola Tesla 📖📒💡.

During the presentation, translation was provided by dr Dejanović who did his utmost to translate the spoken word from English to Serbian in a way that would be easily accessible to the young attendees.

In his opening statement author Ellis Oswalt stated that, because of his work, he is constantly given support and love from Serbs all around the world. Therefore he wanted to express his gratitude to the Tesla Science Foundation and Pertini for organizing the event in Belgrade 💕.

Ellis also wanted to share that his book is free in PDF form for all educational institutions around the world  😍😍😍, which for him is one of the most important things he wanted to do - even though he was advised against it.

For him, Nikola Tesla was a genius, a man from whom anyone can learn. From kids age 4 all the way to the elderly at age 70. As Ellis said:

Tesla was an optimist. His focus was to solve problems from the moment he opens his eyes in the morning until he goes to sleep.

After the opening statement, the author shared various quotations from Nikola Tesla but issued a warning that we should not believe everything we read on the internet because there are many fakes. He also shared with us that many people don't really like him anymore after he explains to them that their favorite quote is, in fact, fake 🤣.

Ellis shared with us his interpretation of Nikola Tesla's understanding of optimism:

Optimism does not mean ignoring negative things around us in the world, it is in fact the opposite. Optimism is facing and overcoming all of them.

In Tesla's words, we should all find something that we love, and then focus on it through diligent and hard work! 💡
