Why are we not optimistic

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”- Winston Churchil

Instance 1
Noida, a Sept. Morning, 9:20 AM,

Two guys riding on a Black Bajaj Pulsar bike, crossing Agarwal Sweets, 300 meters from Bhilwara Towers, where the Pillion works, Black Nokia 7610 rings,Avanish Sir calling, the Guy @ back dressed in black and Blue Stripes Lee short shirt and Flying Machine's carbon Black Denim picks the phone....

Guy: Good morning Sir
Avanish: Yaar wo mera system open kar usmein wo ek mail hai....wo......
Guys: But Sir mai abhi office nahin pahooncha hoon, m just reaching there
Avanish: Kyon yaar late kyon ho jaata hai tu HAR ROJ...
Guy: Sir i just reach and open ur system n call back..
Avanish:kitna time lagega..
Guy: Sir ten minutes....
Avanish: Chal jaldi kar yaar, bye

The one who is mentioned as Guy above refers to myself and Avanish was my boss when I was working as a Merchandiser @ Maral Overseas Limited.

Look @ the line in blue, specially the word HAR ROJ( Daily) in bold. I was very much surprised to listen this, What about all those bloody days when I reached office before 8:40 AM when the office time was 9:30, on this day too I could not be categorized late by any means as i reached office before 9:30 AM

Instance 2

Gurgaon, Infinity Towers, 7th Floor, ICI Paints India Supply Chain Office, @ Nitin Dixit's desk, Nitin is head business excellence and customer service @ ICI

Nitin: By Friday we should be ready with....
Umesh: Sir but friday i will be on leave..
Nitin: arre, Y??, last "friday bhi tum jaldi chale gaye the"
Umesh: Sir meri mama ka leg fracture ho gaya tha, to plaster se wo bone has not got fixed properly.. friday ko unka operation hai....

Look at the sentence in blue, marked in bold, what about all those days when I sit in office, lonely , beyond the official 5:30 PM, no praise for that, what to talk of praise, no one even mentions it

I always wonder,
why do we look at short comings, negatives and faults only??
Why we only scold, ??,when we can appreciate.....

Kaash, sabko Anil jaise friend milte jo unko wo "Half glass water wala joke" sunate to shayad most of us would have been optimists and praisers......

But this is it, this is life , this is the way we are and this is general human outlook.

But Lets come, Lets make a change, Lets be Optimists........Lets Appreciate...Lets do it...

Umesh.....
