Proximity Coaching — AI coaching for men: real-time support in the moment you need it. Meet Proxi He.

Many people I meet are pessimistic and defend their pessimism as "being realistic." And they are correct -- Pessimists do see objective reality slightly more accurately than optimists. However, their accuracy comes at a cost - greater misery. The choice is a bit of accuracy versus greater happiness. It's no choice to me - I choose to be happier.
