Choose Optimism 选择乐观
If you expect something to turn out badly, it probably will.
Pessimism is seldom disappointing. But the same principle also works in reverse. If you expect good things to happen, they usually do! There seems to be a natural cause-and –effect relationship between optimism and success.
Optimism diverts our attention away from negativism and channels it into positive, constructive thinking. When you’re an optimist, you’re more concerned with problem-solving than with useless carping about issues. In fact, without optimism, issues as big and ongoing as poverty have no hope of solution. It takes a dreamer----someone with hopelessly optimistic ideas, great persistence, and unlimited confidence----to tackle a problem that big. It’s your choice.
Be Thoughtful 为别人着想
Being thoughtful simply means thinking of others before yourself. What you say or do will have an effect on others. So it is important that you think before you say or do anything. In this way, you can avoid hurting other’s feelings. Moreover, a thoughtless act or remark can spoil a perfect relationship.
Remember these rules. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Likewise, if you think what you do will hurt others, don’t do it. After all, what goes around comes around.
