How You Look at it Determines What You See

“At the end of the day, both optimists and pessimists

are always right.”

Nisandeh Neta, Best Selling Author, Small Business Expert,

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

How you look at it determines what you see

 

There is an old saying “that when you see it you will believe it”.

 

I would like to believe . . . . that it’s how you look at something will determine what you will see.

 

Take the example of the optimist and the pessimist they both see the same exact thing . . . . but they see it differently. 

 

When one looks through the paradigm of the optimist . . . . they look for the opportunities and creating a business advantage. The pessimist sees the same thing and sees it as an obstacle and a barrier to avoid.

 

Through their thinking they are both right . . . . one builds a bridge while the other creates a brick wall.

 

How you look at it determines what you see . . . . if you see the opportunities and the possibilities you are on the right tract. If your seeing the obstacles and barriers. . . . your attitude is off tract and you needs an attitude adjustment.

 

What you see you see through your attitude . . . . so how you look at it determines what you see.

Lou, your comments are well stated.  It is like a glass that is either half full or half empty.

Lou,

And who is more right, the person who sees the glass as half-full, or half-empty? It's all about what you want to see.
