I think optimism is an essential core value (or characteristic) of a successful company even though it might inhibit the "fail fast" methodology you speak of.

Optimism when kept in check can be the fuel for passion in you and your co-founders.


Agree. In a way, passion should bring enough optimism into the mix.
