Incorrigible optimism

Belém, may 10th 2013


Early this morning i got very happy when reading a comment made by a profession coleague in a private discussion group in facebook. We were discussing the organization we must have to claim income improvements. One of the comments he had made when replying a comment was  that  articlation among pharmacists is slowly happening. What most catched my attention was that he declared himself an incorrigible optimistic...
I've been thinking of people and their motivation to enterpreneuership whatever stuff  they want. This was the subject of another post: "What's in your drawer?"
Obviously the point was very specific. Our group was discussing improvements for pharmacists. Articulation demanded at least availability to talk and discuss suggestions, advantages, limitations, etc. This might not be simple considering the particular realities of the professionals that would be limitating like family. But the collective construction of proposals has reached results far from income improvement in one of the specialties areas. This colleague then shared a thought of venturesome magnitude: Fight for improvements in all pharmaceutical areas. Awesome!

I'll take the example of him and of his suggestion. We were thinking of the pharmaceutical universe only. However this is one of the many other existent universes with their own challenges that encompasses our lives: some of them are easy, other are as challenging as this one, and others are greater, maybe seen as impossible to overcome in various society areas. Let you imagination work. Education? Public Security? Traffic? Environment? Citzenship? etc? Let's think of Education alone. Many of us have children, nephews, many of us study and face the troubles of education which reach everyone. Would parents, relatives, community gathering to participate and improve neighborhood school, give a positive effect on the society? This is being optimistic and propositive. Or is it easier to complain about how bad the school of my children is, point out a guilty for this and be shaped because things are this way? Well, I won't make any comment...
Maybe this example is not an impactful example. its just a provocation. But you can figure out other questions of the society and make similar questions. We can choose a life of complaining or dream up ways to change things.
The point is: All challenges, of all nuances of the society life have solutions, that contradictorily can be the problem as well. The solution is you, who are reading this post whe you believe that you can do something and really do. The problem can also be you, when even you know you can do something, you refuse yourself to leave your comfort zone. What's your decision?
