And what are the results from your attitude?
Half full. People give me grief because they don't believe I see things realistically because I prefer to be optimistic. I just don't see the point in dwelling on the negatives of a situation.
Yeah mines half full and I know things are always great and if not then it wont be long for it to turn around. Sometimes when my friends are negative, I'm there trying to tell them that that sort of attitude only brings on more negitivity so they need to adopt a more positive outlook.
Half full....I am actually generally an optimistic person. I have come to accept that all highs are followed by equally if not bigger lows...so enjoy the high's before the low tide removes all existence of it...

Its easy to be either, depends on my mind set.
i agree with mike.
Oooh on first name terms now are we? Tongue
definetly half full. i'm a single mom with two kids and a full time career. my glass had better be half full all the time; that glass is full of my sanity and patience! LOL
I find that it's always half-full. I'm an optimist, but a realistic one. I understand the plights of this world but I don't let it have bearings on my life, my dreams, my goals.
The over-all effect is that I find my life is more fulfilling. I also feel like I can accomplish anything and I will. People take for granted the fact that the mind is more powerful than we can imagine.
Definetly right there Xtina, the mind is the most powerful tool. Never seen a sucessful person that wasn't positive. Look at that Branson guy, everything he touches turns to GOLD!!!
I'm sitting here typing on DXP and at the moment my glass is half empty and so is the bottle!!!!!
Question do I open another...or go to bed?
Argument apart from the poor spelling I think I'm doing really well with the advice I'm giving out!!!! LMAO
thy cup runneth over
overflowing as usual Tongue
