History recounts the same tale again and again. When difficulties arise, scepticism turns into discouragement and irrationality into fear. Pragmatism leads to counter-productive actions and confusing results.
Without a long-term perspective, problems soon strike the ship under the waterline.
A fully human life is impossible without thoughtfulness. This principle is universal. It knows no exceptions. No one can escape it. Learn from experience, abandon wishful thinking, and embrace a philosophy that works.
Rationality, determination, and consistency are the essential factors of happiness and prosperity. Let them carry the day.
