Resist being a pessimist

 Resist being a pessimist with all your might, because we hardly know anything at all in comparison with what there is to know. 

Can you imagine what a pessimist who lived only 200 years ago would think about the world we live in?  Airplanes, electricity, automobiles, television, remote controls, the Internet, fax machines, telephones, cellular phones, and so on. 

All because of that spark of open-mindedness that allowed progress, growth, and creativity to flourish.
 

And what of the future and all of your tomorrows? 

Can you picture faxing yourself back to the 14th century, flying without machines, telepathically communicating, demolecularizing yourself and rearranging yourself on another galaxy, or cloning a sheep from a photograph of a sheep? 

An open mind allows you to explore and create and grow. A closed mind seals off any such creative explanation. 

Remember that progress would be impossible if we always did things the way we always have. The ability to participate in miracles—true surprises in your life—happens when you open your mind to your limitless potential.
