This all sounds very scary, right? Let not your heart be

Two people can look at the same thing but see different
pictures. Why? Their perceptions are different. Their
perspectives vary. Their mindsets are differently
inclined. The oxford advanced learners’ dictionary says
perspective is a way of thinking about something. I
have witnessed two people go through the same
disastrous situation. Their circumstances mirrored each
11
other but their reactions were markedly different. One
of them started lashing out, blaming everyone and
everything for his hard luck. He subsequently became
despondent. The other person licked his wounds, counted
the cost of failure, learnt his lesson, picked himself up
and forged ahead. Why the difference in their reactions?
It’ s simple. It was their attitude, and their attitude
were preset by their perspectives of the situation
before them. While the former saw his mistake as the
end of the world and subsequently gave up, the latter
understood that the downfall of a man is not the end of
his life. His attitude was positive because his mindset
was right.

met the same situation. He left his car at the end of the
driveway, got out and angrily began clearing a path.
He got angrier with each toy he picked. At first, he did
not see his retired neighbour walk over and begin
gathering the toys alongside him.

point on, whenever he comes home to see bicycles,
Barbie dolls, crayons etc. , scattered all over his
driveway, he felt gratitude. He now thinks, “ Oh! the
kids are still kids. I’ ve still got time with them” .
His driveway did not change. It still looks like a
place hit by a cyclone every evening. His children
still haven’ t learnt to put away their toys. Yet
Steve’ s attitude has changed from one of anger,
resentment, bitterness and unpleasantness, to one of
gratitude and understanding, all because of a shift in
his perspective.

1) First, decide to leave negati vity behind.
Decide first within you, that you are tired of all the
negativity and cynicism. Realize that the reason your
life has locked up to this point is that you have been
viewing reality through a monochrome lens. Settle it
within yourself that it’ s time to pick- up some crayons
and add colour to your life. You can get nothing done
unless you first reach a firm decision to do it. You can
never alter your perception until you decide that you
want something different, something better. Only when
you decide that you are ready to leave negativity
behind can you embrace positivity. To move from where
you are, you have to first decide where you’ d rather be.

battle cannot be won. A lost cause makes you hang your
head in shame and give up, which is a negative attitude.

The big picture is like a map. When you can see the
big picture, even if you hit a roadblock, you don’ t get
discouraged because you know that there are other
ways to get to your destination and the big picture
helps you find them. A possibility thinker always has
the right perspective and a positive attitude.
