Affirmation for March 8, 2011: A Balance of Hope and Fear
Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane and the pessimist the parachute.- Gil SternThought of the day:Some subscribe to an outlook of positivity-- the optimists. And some think that being prepared for the worst is important-- the pessimists.
But as today's quote points out, it is important to have a balance of both. Don't be so pessimistic that your hopes dissolve into harsh reality; often a negative attitude is self-fulfilling. But don't be so optimistic that your head is in the clouds, with no real sense of where the ground is.A balance of optimism and pessimism provides for ambition and preparedness.Have a hope-filled day!TeamDS
