your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.

Life is such a business, where for every gain you have to lose something.
'Losing less - Gaining more' is what defines success in business here.

yourself of the gain, out of fear of loss is utter stupidity.
-Deep Trivedi
It's good to do uncomfortable things. It's weight training for life.
