I think it could be either:

optimism

neatidea

(Other definitions for optimism that I've seen before include "Confident outlook" , "Looking on the bright side" , "Hopeful nature" , "Glass half-full attitude" , "The tendency to always expect the best" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
