Thought For the Day - Adjust the Sails

“The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist ADJUSTS the sails.”

—William Arthur Ward

I am an optimist but I am also a realist so I would say I'm an optimistic realist. I believe it is not enough to be optimistic. You need to make a realistic assessment of the situation, your options and the chances for achieving your outcomes. The most important thing is to take action and adjust your sails or tweak your actions until you reach your destination or goals.
