Pronoia 

Pronoia is a mental condition we should all have.

Pronoia is neologism that is defined as the opposite state of mind to paranoia: having a sense that there is a conspiracy that exists to help the person.
It is also used to describe a philosophy that the world is set up to secretly benefit people.

My pronoia kicked in when I realized that it only takes a few months to learn a new language, and not several years.

Now I feel more courageous to learn yet another language.

My dentist did a great job ... he filled my cavities with mercury amalgams, and then gave me a fluoride rinse. I don't know why my Naturopathic doctor is treating me for Pronoia ?!?!?

Pronoia-maxxing

Pronoia-maxxing is the intentional, radical practice of adopting an extreme "optimism" mindset as a lifestyle or "hack" for success. It’s not just being "positive"; it is a proactive psychological framework.
Key Traits of Pronoia-Maxxing:
Aggressive Reframing: If you lose your job, you don't just "stay positive"; you act with the absolute certainty that a much better, higher-paying role is currently being prepared for you.
Main Character Energy: Living as if the "writers" of your life are currently drafting a massive victory for you.

"I'm pronoia-maxxing after getting laid off—instead of stressing, I’m treating this as a mandatory 'severance-funded pivot' because the universe clearly knows I’m ready for a much bigger role than that last one."

Pyronoia 

The sneaking suspicion that you've left an appliance on at home, and that your house is now a towering inferno.

I was halfway to the shops before I experienced a stab of pyronoia; had I turned the iron off? I thought I had, or had I only imagined that?
