The What If Factors

What if factors cannot be ignored.  Optimists take things in their stride and evaluate the situation and decide if there is a risk, or if their reasons for making a decision need further investigation. They endeavour to calculate risk factors into the equation, and they either suddenly make a move, try something else or wait a bit longer. Pessimists are most likely feeling too stressed to make a calculated decision because they imagine all of the negatives, and they feel relieved when they opt out.  This is sometimes referred to as "paralysis by analysis". Always leave some scope in your "dreams". Perseverance requires a clear head and sound sleep when working to achieve a goal.
