Part of the point is that negativity has never solved, and never will solve anything. The saying goes 'hope for the best but prepare for the worst'. The first part of the saying is incomplete and should maybe be restated "work for the best, hope for even better, expect something average, prepare for the setbacks". Even if I don't know you I can truthfully say that you are working for the best you can, and what more can any person ask from their fellow being?
