How can I help my child to develop positive attitude towards future?

Parents have an immensely important role to play to help a child develop an optimistic attitude since they are the first and foremost source of the child's development. Parents need to play the role of a good communicator as a friend, as a comrade, with whom a child can communicate everyday. Your expectations from your child go a long way in influencing the child's mind. Parent's expressions verbal or nonverbal, their stress, their unfulfilled dreams can be perceived by the children. These things are unknowingly shadowing on to the children and dim the positive attitude of the child. Little things like these would be helpful:
Sitting on the dining table together
Watching television together
Taking a walk with your child during the examination days.
Ensuring a pleasant environment at home. Humor the life!!
