Title: Discouraged???
Post by sandie99 on Dec 4^th, 2005, 2:49pm

Discouraged???

Feeling down? Do you wish mediocrity translated into power? Do you ever wish the world of high achievers would just go away? If average means, "best of the worst and worst of the best," do you ever wish the best would just lock themselves in a closet and disappear? Have you ever, just for a passing moment, desired to reward failure? Laugh about it--after all, laughter feels good. Try some of these underachiever ideas, from a strictly pessimistic perspective, and see how they feel:

Performance:
Enjoy doing poorly what others try to do well.

Effort:
I am working hard while frowning for it takes 43 muscles to frown and only 17 to smile.

Procrastination:
To procrastinate is to relax and that benefit is immediate. Remember, a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush.

Self imposed limitations:
Limitations are like walls in a cozy home--I don't have to deal with the weather.

Intelligence:
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Purpose:
I have no purpose unless the purpose of my life is to serve as a warning to others.

Hope:
It's always darkest just before it goes pitch black.

Joy:
That which does not end it now only postpones the inevitable.

Optimism:
Bad stuff happens--ask anyone under the toilet bowl.

Personal growth:
I remain focused only on my present failings, now and forever, for I know what I am aware of is only the tip of the iceberg.

Knowledge:
Clueless is the most popular Sir-name in my workplace.
Success:

The real secret to succeeding is knowing whom to blame.

Attitude:
Beware--attitudes are contagious and mine might be harmful to you.

Relationships:
If you think it's lonely at the top--you should try being evicted from the bottom.

Determination:
The longest journey sometimes goes in circles.

How about: "Smile and the world smiles with you".

"If you can dream it, you can live it"

Always remember no matter where you go, there you are.

Angels can fly because they take themselves so lightly.

Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected become the expected?

Don't Take Life Seriously, It Is Not Permanent.

Floggings will continue until morale improves.

There's a dark and a troubled side of life
There's a bright and a sunnyside, too.
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
The sunnyside we also may view.

Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.

The storm and it's fury rage today
Crushing hope that we cherished so dear.
Storm and clouds will in time pass away,
The sun again will shine bright and clear.

Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.

May the street with the song of hope be paved
Though the moment be cloudy or fair.
May we trust in the good lord always
To keep us everyone in his care.

Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.

Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on ...

;)

Now you see I always thought it was the other way around. I have to think about the bird in the bush to make the bird in hand worth a crap.

I have a book I picked up many many years ago titled "Stop Postponing the Rest of Your Life".

I refuse to read it ;;D
