All of us time to time might transit through the different moods and mindsets of being either — a pessimist, an optimist, a realist, an escapist or an opportunist.

As long as these are temporary and you bounce back from the un-resourceful and disempowering mindsets to an empowering one — it is perfectly alright.

Living a life with negative, harmful and damaging mindset — can have long-term impact on yourself as well as on people around you.

Pessimists often interpret negative events as internal, global, and stable — whereas positive events for them are temporary and unstable

In this article we will discuss — how to be a positive empowering opportunist — instead of being a predatory and harmful opportunist.

All the great thinkers balance optimism and pessimism — because always seeing the world through rose-colored glasses or seeing with catastrophic eyes -can become a perfect recipes for hurts, pains, stress, frustrations and disappointments.

For your own as well as for your most loved ones — Be the good opportunist who takes every opportunity to contribute towards a greater good.

Being aware of the realities and how things work — actually works a lot in your favor.
