Sigh

FAIL!!!

Ah well it sometimes is inevitable right? In this world there are 2 different kinds of people. Optimist and pesimist. If someone gave you a glass thats half filled whats the first response?

a) It is half full
b) It is half empty

Sometimes in life its so much easier to be pessimistic.
Grumble Grumble Grumble..... sigh sigh sigh........ die die die
Life goes on, fail fail la. What attitude is this? Pessimistic or optimist?
Now let's put it in a different perspective.

Ok I failed my exam. What now? Considering my options to retake or go to another university or to try harder or swap courses. Look, its all in the mind. A chess player once said, the moment you think you are going to lose a chess game the battle is already half lost.

What makes Kasparov, Fisher, and other chess players great? Not only chess; other sport. Mentality. Winning attitude.

If you lost that you're a goner. Chin up. Downplay a loss. Shake off the disapointment and go on.
Look at Liverpool. If it's one thing I salute them for it has to be their mentality. 3-0 down against AC Milan. Champions League final. Second half, brilliant game 3-3 won it on penalties. Year after year lost the Premiership title to Manchester United, year after year saying that next season they will win it. Still waiting though. Sad story!

I know it can be hard. But sometimes, somethings can't be accomplished, but that doesn't mean it's either

a) end of the world
b) you're branded a failure

The possibilities out there are massive. If you can't do something, that doesnt mean you're not good in anything.

:P
