The update you have provided from Price Pritchett is truly amazing. /* a fundamental but overlooked aspect of ‘reality’ is, in fact, what we think and feel and hope inside. That is a power born of ourselves, and it’s very real in its influence on our lives. */ absolutely mind blowing. Hi Sukumar,

I am glad I came back. The update you have provided from Price Pritchett is truly amazing.

Particularly, at critical problems, my intuit will believe, that i can solve it, but to my intellectual, there would be no way. But in the end, situation would become conducible, and finally i would get away. In that angle, an optimists just believes, but in stockdale paradox, its like optimism pushed to our subconsciousness, where our intellectual prepares for the worst, which most probably might not happen, or might be tackable. Anything, imbibed in our subconscious, will bring about surprising changes. Sukumar,
