“Life is how you look at it. Look for the doom and gloom, and you’ll find it.

Plenty of people out there willing to tell you how bad the world is. Just turn on the mainstream news. There it is.

But look for the sunshine and gold, and you’ll find that, too. It’s just a matter of where you point your mental binoculars.”

Joe Vitale

I love the idea of mental binoculars!

I can see it being an addition to how a person’s life experiences and background shapes the whole person. What view - good or bad - they are looking from can have an added effect on a person’s life.
