Your perception of whether the glass of water is half-full or half-empty very much determines who you are as an individual in relation to the world around you. Experts will tell you that if all you see is a half-empty glass, then you are a pessimist and you have a tendency to view things in a negative light and as a consequence, you will fail. On the other hand, if you see a half-full glass, then you are an optimist and you have a can-do attitude that can make a great impact on your life and on the lives of those around you.
As for me, I see a glass that contains 1/2 water and 1/2 air. Technically, that glass is full. So, what does that make me?

ReplyDeleteI see a philosopher. We need such kind these days.
ReplyDeleteI personally am more of a pessimist. Fear the worst.. I think I take after the man who came up with "Awes me tou"- isn't that what a pessimist would live by? I am almost always pleasantly surprised by the outcome.
