Optimist In Adversity Pillows

"For what it's worth, I don't have sore feet anymore."

That shows business confidence.

Social distancing

"Of course this'll be a great year. The data, sales projections, customer surveys, and my mom all think so."

What the Thinker was thinking: 'I think I can...I think I can...'

"I feel like that I've been given a unique oppurtunity to speak out on issues."

'Oh for heaven's sake, you're a cow. Just eat grass and be happy.'

Optimist

One man's obstacle is another man's stepping stone.

Six Thinking Hats

'Don't worry about your job at the office, Sweetie. They declared bankrupty today.'

"I love your optimism."

"This year I resolve to embrace change."

"I've learned something in this trial. My firm needs to hire that prosecutor."

"I think I can". (train)

"Using worst case scenario as a baseline, I consider this data quite encouraging."

'Actually, my mom was the first to notice he'd lost that new boyfriend smell!'

"Well, so much for my lucky hat! I've worn it to five interviews and not ONE callback!"

'The good news is that from now on I belong to a very rare species. There aren't many personnel managers who create their own pink slip.'

"Don't you worry about me. I always land on my feet."

"Yes, we're stranded here... but think how healthier we are eating nothing but fish!"

'We had no contingency plan for things going right.'

Always expect the best

'Look, dear, they offer cloud storage for optimistic economic projections...it's called Cloud 9.'

"I hate weddings. They make me feel a momentary lapse of cynicism."

"I just think things will work out for the best, and by the best I mean me."

'Oh good! - I hate long lines!'

"Only four more weeks before school is out...and then we're free for the time of our lives!"

"How am I supposed to unleash my full potential when I'm always on one?"

'Wow, that is a really big goal!'

Pollyanna, the Hamster

Doug reasoned that things could be worse...but just how much worse...he wasn't sure??

"Today stocks rose on the news that 'down' is a temporary state of mind."

"Oh, don't mind us... We just want to make sure it's really dead."

Flower growing from a bomb.
