The optimist sees the donut; the pessimist sees the hole. There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. Put things into perspective! The closer you are to the problem and the more in front of it, the less you see. Step back and get a more global view of it. Sometimes, while driving, we focus so much on the rearview mirror that we forget to focus on the front windshield. Relate this to your life situation.
