1. It is very rare or impossible that an event can be negative from all points of view. – Dalai Lama
Nothing can be purely negative. You must come to terms with the idea that your viewpoint counts. People frequently blame an occurrence but fail to recognize that even if everything appears to be awful, it is still necessary to see some degree of optimism in it. It all depends on how you look at it.
2. Don’t find customers for your products, find products for your customers. – Seth Godin

3. It always seems impossible until it’s done. – Nelson Mandela
Our sense of what is real and what we are capable of can become clouded when faced with a challenge. Some projects appear impossible only because you construct them in that manner.

4. Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I’m possible. – Audrey Hepburn
Many of the things we consider impossible in the twenty-first century may one day become attainable. It is true that if you can envision it, you can make it. So, is it impossible because you assume you cannot do it? In such a case, you are giving up without fighting. Strive hard because once you fix your mind on it, you can do it.
5. Don’t find fault. Find a remedy. – Henry Ford
In any event, flaws are likely. Things that you think would go one way at one moment will go just in the wrong direction the next. Instead of concentrating on those errors, look for solutions to fix them.
