Anything "too much" is bad be it optimism or "blind optimism". Think about when you heard the "Happy" song for the first time, then think about hearing it for months in every channel, interviews, adverts, music shows....


About life being meaningful, that is too much philosophical for me to grasp, but your actions do get affected depending on your approach be it optimistic or pessimistic.
