Be optimistic in tough times and during new starts for pessimists don’t win

Be optimistic in tough times and during new starts for pessimists don’t win. If you want to win, you have to condition your mind to think and want to win.
Life is a series of Start and Finish nodes., the end of one cycle is the beginning of the next, and a combination of these makes dreams come through.
In between the start and finish nodes are the real test of character, resilience, focus, and attitude.
The start of a new Journey is here, you cannot start something new and tell yourself, “I am going to fail” then you better do not start. Remove the thoughts of failing out of the thinking.

“You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down” ― Charlie Chaplin

Winners look where the solution is, winners do what winners have to do, winners do not give up because when the going gets tough, it is a sig to them that victory is nearer.
Focusing on the finish line and enjoying the tough moments, bumpy roads, and red lights which all contribute to making the celebration worth the moment when it all comes to an end.

“Stay away from those people who try to disparage your ambitions. Small minds will always do that, but great minds will give you a feeling that you can become great too.” — Mark Twain

Be optimistic in tough times and during new starts for pessimists don’t win. Being PESSIMISTIC is a self-worth-reducing mindset that makes you concentrate on the negative side of things, leading to the projection of your weaknesses and the notion that nothing good will come from hard work and investments.
This mindset is a glorified mindset that aims at painting a false picture of the power of your mind and what you can do and achieve.
But raising your mind above the bars of fear, self disbelief, and shaking off the notion that, you cannot, simply mean being OPTIMISTIC.

“Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.” — Winston S. Churchill

Do not choose to tell yourself how bad the situation is and that you can not succeed because I know for sure that, in every tough moment and hard time, is a seed of promise. Believe you can, and give it your best shot. Do not limit your mind because the mind naturally has no limits as far as what you can do and achieve are concerned. Be optimistic in tough times and during new starts for pessimists don’t win and KEEP YOUR FOCUS.
“Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.” —Dale Carnegie
Listen to pessimistic but learn from their fears and keep going. “The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty.” — Winston Churchill. Never give up, keep going when others feel it is time to say goodbye to the dream, KEEP YOUR FOCUS.
Never learn the art of giving up, instead learn the power of pushing harder when the going gets tough. Be reminded again that you have to be optimistic in tough times and during new starts for pessimists don’t win.
