Have You Heard Of These “REALISTS” ?
I’ve never been one to identify myself under a certain label, a single type of characteristic, or anything really.
Maybe you can relate,
but when I read where,
William Arthur Ward said,
The pessimist complains about the wind;
the optimist expects it to change;
the realist adjusts the sails.
It stuck.
I think most people who make change, who do, not good things, but great things, look at things and filter them through factual and not emotional.
Try to look things the way they are,
Instead of the way we wish things were.
Because from there
its a stable first step
from there
it’s an informed first step
from there
its a clear first step
Most are rewarded,
for taking that first step,
not in, great times,
but the bad times as well,
The winners,
choose to adjust in bad times to take themselves and their people,
back to great times
No matter how strong,
how bad the fucking wind may be in your life,
Everything could be telling you to stop the boat,
to sit and cry about it,
you can hope it will change
you can wish the wind never happened
or you can choose to,
ADJUST YOUR FUCKING SAILS
From there
you can start.
