[Quote No.47312] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"[It is hard to know what is good luck and what isn't and therefore whether we should be happy or sad about it. Only time will tell. For example...] The Talmud relates a story about two people who wanted to travel by boat. One broke his foot and was unable to make the trip, while his friend got on the boat. The one who missed the boat cursed his misfortune. A few days later, however, he heard that the boat sank and all the passengers drowned." - Rabbi Zelig Pliskin
Quote from his book, 'Gateway to Happiness', p.242.

[Quote No.47603] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"Feelings Aren't Facts: Some people feel discouraged. They then assume that these feelings are facts: since they feel discouraged that is a 'proof' there is no hope. But feelings only represent a person's present state of mind, they cannot predict the future.
They can ask themselves: 'Do my present feelings actually prove that there is no hope?' Of course not. There is never absolute proof that your situation will not improve. By believing you have no hope, you are causing yourself great harm. Adopt the attitude: 'It is always possible that the future will turn out much brighter than I presently feel it will. What constructive action can I take for improvement?'" - Rabbi Zelig Pliskin
Quote from his book, 'Gateway to Happiness', pp.374-5.

[Quote No.47957] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"...the elements of [imagination] frequency, duration, vividness, and intensity can help you or hurt you. Like nature, the power of [imagination] visualization is neutral. Like a two-edged sword, it can cut in either direction. It can either make you a success [when you desire and imagine success] or make you a failure [when you fear and imagine failure] . Visualization brings you whatever you vividly and intensely imagine, whether good or bad." - Brian Tracy

[Quote No.48298] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"[Habitual ways of seeing the world, which are an important part of successful life-skills, make an enormous difference to how people experience the very same circumstances. For example:] Experiment with experiencing the same situation through the eyes of optimism [gratitude things are not worse, satisfaction in what’s been achieved already and positive anticipation for the future] and pessimism [bitterness things are not better, dissatisfaction in what’s been achieved already and negative anticipation for the future]. Take, for example, an airplane voyage [and experience it pessimistically]: Imagine that you are on a long airplane trip en route to a strange city to begin a new job. Suddenly the airplane encounters turbulence. You can see the plane’s wings tilting up and down and you visualize the ensuing disaster. Once the turbulence settles down, you realize your seat is too small. You can’t find a comfortable position, and your mind is filled with complaints about the state of airplane travel. You are annoyed that the air hostess is taking forever to bring your drink. When you think ahead to your new job, you feel certain that the people you will meet won’t like or appreciate you. They will ignore your expertise, keep you away from the most interesting projects, and might even cheat you. You are sure that this trip will be a catastrophe. Why did you ever think you could handle it? You are filled with dread. Experience the gloomy state of mind such thoughts create. Then experiment with another way to experience the same situation [optimistically]: When the plane encounters turbulence, you know that it is part of the journey [are grateful the plane is not smaller and the turbulence worse and are thankful for the expertise of the designers, builders, mechanics and pilots] and vividly feel that every instant that passes by is precious. As the turbulence calms down, you feel grateful and hope that you can use the rest of your life constructively. Although your seat is not particularly comfortable, you [are grateful that you have a seat at all and] find positions that relieve the stiffness of your back and legs. You appreciate how cheerful and helpful the air hostess is even though she is busy and has to stand up throughout most of the flight. You are excited by the adventures that await you. You imagine that the people there will be interesting and productive and that you will be given many new opportunities. You are convinced that your activities will flourish and that you have the inner resources to overcome any obstacles that may arise. Experience this buoyant state of mind that is turned to the positive. Appreciate the difference between these two states of mind and understand how they came about simply through the workings of your mind [learned, habitual perspective life-skills] although the outer situation remained the same!!" - Matthieu Ricard
Initially a young researcher in cellular genetics at the French Institut Pasteur with Nobel Prize in Medicine winner, Francois Jacob, he has for the last 35 years been a Buddhist Monk, living and working on humanitarian projects in Tibet and Nepal. He has been dubbed the ‘happiest person in the world’ by the popular media. Quote from his best-selling book, ‘The Art of Happiness- A Guide to Developing Life’s Most Important Skill’.

[Quote No.48568] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"If optimism is important, it’s because many outcomes are determined by how much of it we bring to the task. It is an important ingredient of success. This flies in the face of the elite view that talent is the primary requirement of a good life, but in many cases the difference between success and failure is determined by nothing more than our sense of what is possible and the energy we can muster to convince others of our due. We might be doomed not by a lack of skill, but by an absence of hope!" - Alain de Botton and John Armstrong
Alain de Botton is a philosopher and John Armstrong is an art historian. Quote from their book, 'Art as Therapy'.

'Hold Fast To Dreams'

For when dreams go,
Life is a barren field,
Frozen with snow!
