Cynicism is bad

Cynicism narrows your mind, keeps your perspective closed.

Sarcasm has been my defensive tool for some time now, I never really realized what it does to me. Sarcasm poisons your mind.

I realized that optimism is not about finding the silver lining in every shit. Optimism is about opening your perspective to see that shit is not the only thing. Keep your mind open for every opportunities that is out there.

Take an example more relevant to myself, I’ve always want to be the rich ass that stays at Cove, spend money like nobody’s business. I learnt quickly that people in high places have acquaintances with the right people who put them in high places, and concluded that my life is bullshit since there is no practical way that I would make such a network.

I complained about my job, the amount of bullshit that it entails. But I failed to truly realize that I am already having the kind of opportunities that many cannot even dream of. My network may be small, but my work gives me the opportunities to know more people.

The fact that I am too young and inexperienced may be dismal, but I should be glad that I have such opportunities at such a young age. By the time I am 30s, I may have the kind of exposure that would make me successful.

Cynicism is bad, it closes your mind to opportunities. You need to keep an opened mind to look at things from all perspectives; you need to keep an opened mind to be successful.
