The author expresses and justies the belief that the state of our spirit and life satisfaction or dissatisfaction depends not only on external factors (facts and events in which we participate and our relations with other people) but also (sometimes to a signicant degree) on ourselves, on how we interpret facts and attitudes of other people and how we react to them. The appropriate way of reacting to reality aects, in great measure, not only our wellbeing but also our mental health and the degree of life satisfaction. The author distinguishes and characterizes desirable and undesirable characteristics of our life attitude.
