You can’t cling to the past …

Another piece of “How I met your mother” life philosophy (see –> Right place, right time) and another view on that life might get understood backwards, but needs to be lived forward (see –> Life is today). So both seems to be close to me …

Choose to be optimistic

Choose to be optimistic

Of course not so easy when you are stuck in darkness or just been hit by fate. So for me that does not mean that one need to be positive all the time. Sadness or fear serve a purpose. However, we are not meant to remain stuck in such a state forever. This is when it becomes helpful to find out what your options are. And most of the times there is more than one option.

When someone tells me that I only have two alternatives to choose from (or that something is “without alternatives”), I get suspicious. This is rarely the case. Once I realize my options, the Dalai Lame (or Bruce Lee) come into play.

“Choose the positive. You have choice, you are master of your attitude, choose the positive, the constructive. Optimism is a faith that leads to success.”

Bruce Lee
