An optimist is the human personification of spring.

And who does not like spring, huh? 😉

Why being an optimist kicks ass

You can do it!
Bite off more than you can chew, then chew it.
Ella Williams
Well, a classic one if you ask me. If you find yourself in a situation where you have leaded more one your shoulders that you can normaly carry, don’t pray for less load, work for stronger shoulders!

What about alternative routes?
The most successful people are those who are good at plan B.
James Yorke
It can not always go according to plan. Be sure to have a good backup plan, always be prepared!

Be happy!
The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.
Carlos Castaneda
Honestly, you might end up going through tough shit in your life, but guess what? No matter how you look at it, you will make it through!
So why dwell in negative feelings and emotions when on the other hand you can take it lightly and just enjoy your life? It is your choice and only yours!

Just do it!
Nothing will work unless you do.

Lincoln knew how to get shit done!
Determine the thing that can and shall be done, and then we shall find the way.

Why money is not that important after all
Time is more important than money. You can always get more money, you can’t get more time!
Jim Rohn
Use your time! Have fun, fuck shit up, hang out with friends, make good use of your time!
Of course it is good to work, but never overestimate money and never think “I can have fun later, as soon as I have some money.” BULLSHIT! Start living now, money comes either way.

Your focus needs more focus!
One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
Tony Robbins
One of the main reasons why even people with huge potential often don’t get things done is a lack of focus.
As long as you don’t focus on certain skills, you won’t become good at anything. Being mediocre at many things is fun, but being really good at some things is way better, that’s for sure!

Stop chasing happiness
If only we’d stop trying to be happy we’d have a pretty good time.
Edith Wharton
These thoughts occured to me a lot for the past few weeks. So many peoeple are busy searching for happiness that they forget that they are in fact happy right now.
They have friends, family, jobs they like, hobbies etc. but still “search” for happiness.

Do what you love!
If you observe a really happy man you will find him building a boat, writing a symphony, educating his son, growing double dahlias in his garden. He will not be searching for happiness as if it were a collar button that has rolled under the radiator.
W. Beran Wolfe
Being happy is doing the things you love!
Searching for happiness is a concept that can’t work since your search is not meant to make you happy.
You have to start doing things you like in order to find happiness.
