The opportunist

Just a random thought... will edit it soon

Optimist and pessimist were discussing about the glass of water,

Suddenly opportunist came and drank that,

“Thanks” he smiled and went away,

“Look the glass is fully empty now” smiled pessimist,

“No its filled with air” replied optimist,

But somehow they both were left thirsty,

So the message is clear,

If you are thirsty don’t worry about the glass,

Don’t think too much,

Just do what is required,

If you have failed in life,

Don’t think about too much that what went wrong,

Just focus on the job and work hard,

The life belongs to opportunists,

It is not in being positive or negative,

Just keep it simple and do what is required,

The more you think, the more confusion you get,

It’s not in being fussy or choosy,

It’s in doing the required,

So opportunist is the one who survives in the end.

Nice story. Tru that. But still opportunists are mean in my opinion. They are rude and lack consideration for others in any form most of the times. Again, we have opposite thought process here as well.

My message here is that pessimists and optimists waste too much time in planning and thinking... while opportunists only see the opportunity and act....anyway thanks for your review :)

Wonderful message in such simple words! As they say 'Hope for the best but prepare for the worst' what's more important is being in the race. Good work:)
