The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty.
– Winston Churchill

We are driven by our thoughts, and thoughts are driven by our mind and thus ultimately we are driven by our mind. The way one thinks and perceives defines everything.

Our thoughts and imagination are the only real limits to our possibilities.
