Choose Optimism

When I look at the world I’m pessimistic, but when I look at people I am optimistic. Carl Rogers.

So much of life is choices….. one of the most important (because it impacts on almost everything you do in life) is choosing whether to be a pessimist or an optimist.

Pessimists, by nature, are destructive, unsure of their abilities, closed to new ideas, critical of the opinions of others, disrespectful, fearful and comfortable with their view of the past.

Optimists, on the other hand, are helpful, open to ideas, sharing, inclusive, caring and  forward thinking and welcoming of the future. They are the explorers, the builders.

If it weren’t for optimists, we’d still be huddled around a campfire, terrified of the strange noises in the dark shadows beyond the light of flames.

Persistence

The closer you get to your dream, the more your Personal Legend becomes your real reason for living. Paulo Coelho.

In the pantheon of traits that supports successful people, at the top, along side courage, stands persistence.

Persistent people never give up. They know the journey can seem long and sometimes interminable. Always, though, failure is never an option. They:

  1. Have a highly developed sense of purpose.
  2. Are always hopeful.
  3. Take a long term view.
  4. Are not afraid to ask for help.
  5. Don’t get frightened by uncomfortable thoughts or by not always having the answer.
  6. Are selective in to whom they turn for guidance and inspiration.
  7. Find healthy ways to recharge and nurture themselves.

And they know the only way to save their dream is to be kind and generous to themselves.

Yes You Can

The world is divided into two classes, those who believe in the incredible and those who do the improbable. Oscar Wilde.

Life isn’t always sunshine and roses. Sometimes it is bloody tough.

When it’s the latter and your courage is a little thin, don’t give up.

If it’s a big problem, break it down into smaller, manageable bits.

Then take it one day a time, step by step.

Remember, life is a marathon, not a sprint.

Connect with people who prioritize growth and focus on living larger lives.

Keep believing in yourself. Your courage will see through.
