Dealing with sceptics

If you are an optimist you shouldn't be around skeptics. If you are generally open minded and a keen learner you shouldn't be with the narrow minded. If you do you will become like them. Skeptics are good, because they can point out flaws you might have missed but skeptics that are the way they are because they hate changes in their environment and their way of thinking should be avoided at all cost. There is no value from their influence.

How to direct your energy

I have to say I learn something new today. If the outcome of attaining something is not worth the fight then recognize it fast and struggle for something worth attaining for the effort. The problem is when you spend so much resources struggling for something and latter to find that it wasn't worth the effort. Every time you are on to some thing you need to ask if there is a better way for you to achieve your goals/task. (Because there always is)

Such a simple truth but I need some pain to appreciate it.... lol.
