Mauro Libi Crestani: Pessimism can lead to hopelessness and failure

Henry Ford once said, “Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you are right.” Henry ford believed in the power of positive thinking. He believed that your thinking and your attitude affected the outcome. if you had negative thinking and did not believe that you would succeed then you would end off in failure. When you think positively, you will almost always find more solutions. When you are optimistic, you believe there is a solution to be found, and you free your mind to devise those solutions. Pessimism can lead to hopelessness and failure.

“Don't find fault, find a remedy; anybody can complain”   was another quote from Henry Ford. When Henry Ford wanted to start his automobile company he met with at least two failures and he lost his investors. They had lost their faith in him, but he did not lose his faith in himself. He had learned from his mistakes and was on his way to amazing success. “Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.” , said Henry Ford.. Henry said that his early failures were a blessing. He learned from them, he learned things that he would not have looked for had it not been for his failures.

"In fact, it is a curse to have everything go right on your first attempt." What  a different attitude this quote from Mr Ford expressed than most of us have towards failure. His lesson was not to get overconfident, learn from your mistakes, and as long as you learn they are just a tool toward your final successful goal.
