Completely agree on all the 3 principles for success & happiness in life, with my 25 plus years in public service/academia.
1. Choose to be optimistic. (Pessimism fails you before even you attempt)
2. Take on difficult challenges (you learn a lot if you fail, if you pass you gain enormous satisfaction, confidence and strength to do more)
3. Pursue what excites (Its the passion that makes you run the extra mile, not the fruit of it)
