A good friend of mine told me a good advice recently, “Sometimes, something just happened to help us to make decision” I’ll share the story on Thursday, but I’m curious to know what you think about it?

1% of the effort can mean 100%
I’m sure that everyone has heard the story of Thomas Edison. He said, I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work. Most of the time, we failed to see that. When we fail too much, we become discourage; When our effort don’t seem fruitful, we become frustrated; When we don’t get what we want, we become depressed; And, when everyone told us to stop, we instantly agreed.

Shut up, sit still and admit it!
Talking so much about positivity and to be an optimist, but there are times when you hit the bottom, you just can’t get your head straight.
