Does he view himself as a pessimist? Raising his level of self awareness might be a good start if not.

I think he acknowledges it, but that's just the way he was raised. I try to empower him and he gets it for the most part but I think there will always be an element of cynicism within him. That's just who he is. It's great when gets excited and driven, but the negativity is overwhelming at times and needless to say, counter intuitive to our goals.
