Where i work i have many collegues that are always negative. They only see the bad things. I am the eternal optimist. I have a positive spin on everything, and i have changed several of my friends lives due to my attitude (for the better).
I wanted to quote these famous sayings just to add to your thread Brook.
Life is a shipwreck but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats. ~Voltaire
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. ~Winston Churchill
Every thought is a seed. If you plant crab apples, don't count on harvesting Golden Delicious. ~Bill Meyer
