Its an age old question – is the glass half full, or half empty? Conventional wisdom has held that an optimist believes the glass to be half full. A pessimist believes otherwise. Personally, I have always considered myself a realist, one who recognizes the glass has being neither half full or half empty – it has water in it. Its up to you to determine what it should be.
With that being said, far more important than the perception of the glass of water is what you want to accomplish with the water. If you want to empty the glass, the opportunity is there because half the water is gone – the challenge is how do you get the rest of the water out? Alternatively, if you want to fill the glass, the opportunity is there because the glass is already filled halfway – the challenge is figuring out how to get it full.
Personally, I’m trying like hell to fill the glass. How about you?
