I started a thread in the main discussion area about creating optimism.

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...-optimism.html

Just one quick pithy side note:

I recall reading of a zen master who said, "It is easy to meditate in a quiet place, like a forest or by a river. It is quite another to meditate when a fist is about to smash your face."

Optimism during good times requires nothing of us....
