The hopeful man sees success where others see failure, sunshine where others see shadows and storm
I know that it can be hard to stay motivated at times, especially when you feel like you have failed at life. However, the attitude that we have during these types of trials can actually shape who we become and be the architect of our future. For instance, if we are working on something that we really desired, but for some reason have not been able to achieve, we may be inclined to focus on the failure. However, a little shift in attitude can turn the event into something positive. The failure that we experienced was just one of the ways we would not succeed. You might have heard of Thomas Alva Edison, and all the thousands of failures he experienced in trying to invent the electric light bulb. He did not look at all the experiments that did not work as failures. He successfully found thousands of ways the electric light bulb would NOT work. You may know people who see doom and gloom everywhere. When a thunder storm crosses your region, all they see is dark clouds and downpours. But there is a silver lining in every dark cloud. By altering the perception, you will see the good that comes from the storm. The moisture that is needed to grow our food. And not to forget, after every storm there is a beautiful sunshine, and fresh clean air. Find the benefits in the downpours of your life. Find the hope in every situation, and you will transform your life and the world you live in.
