BE OPTIMISTIC

ELAINE B. ESTACIO

An optimistic person has a wide range of dreams and endeavors. He/ She believes in the saying or quote of “Try and try until you succeed.” Not everyone has the gift of being a positive thinker. To be one, be inspired to those who have the enthusiasm to go on even they stumble in some of their deci si ons.

A positive thinker is a WINNER. Being a winner doesn’t necessarily mean winning a competition, a battle or a race. The connotative meaning of a winner is someone who is not easily swayed with problems or bitterness in life. He/she has positive reasons and attitudes that will serve as his/her weapon to kick off facing the bad circumstances of life.

As teacher, we must be positive thinkers, we must still be optimistic in spite of the many hurdles of life. Life is not a smooth journey, the more we walk on the journey of life, the more we have to be strong and determined. We have a big influence to our pupils/students. It is just proper to be a hopeful person.

At the start of the day, begin appreciating the gifts of God. The people around us, our family, work, nature etc. are our sources of our happiness. These will already be our motivating factor to be a positive thinker.
