Be Optimistic About Everything

Look for the gifts in everything, especially when you are facing what appears to be a negative situation. Everything that we attract causes us to grow, which means that ultimately everything is for our own good.
Adjusting to a new path and a new direction will require new qualities and strengths, and these qualities are always exactly what we need to acquire in order to accomplish the great things ahead in our life.

    Hi hendricius,

    Great post.

    Everything is a vehicle for your advancement. It's your decision whether to move forward or throw it in reverse.

    Your post shows why expressing gratitude is vital to becoming successful. Looking for the gift in everything causes you to be grateful, and a grateful mind naturally attracts good things including ideas to move forward so that you may better your life.

    Be a balanced optimist:

    Nobody's suggesting that you become an oblivious Pollyanna, pretending that nothing bad can or ever will happen. Doing so can lead to poor decisions and invites people to take advantage of you. Instead, be a rational optimist who takes the good with the bad, in hopes of the good ultimately outweighing the bad, and with the understanding that being pessimistic about everything accomplishes nothing. Prepare for the worst but hope for the best - the former makes you sensible, and the latter makes you an optimist.
