Attitude and Outlook

Blessed are those that expect nothing, for they shall never be disappointed.
-Alexander Pope

This quote reminds me of Mother Teresa when she walked through the streets of Calcutta. She wasn’t saying “this is awful, there is nothing I can do to help these people”. She was not paralyzed with fear. If she would have thought like this, she would have been unable to help the people that lived their in extreme poverty. The real question is ”Am I thinking positive and see set backs as temporary”. Or do I have a negative way of thinking and see setbacks, helplessness and failure as the norm. Positive thinking is extremely empowering and powerful
