![]() One of the most appreciated qualities this year has been resilience. We have suffered from a number of people who are looking for the positive side to everything, generating fantasies around circumstances, rather than observing, analyzing, understanding and solving. The bad news is that we have taken positions that, instead of being optimistic, we are being so naive that we border on the limits of danger. It allows us to settle our feet on the ground, appreciate things with perspective, see the scenarios as they are to turn them around: to take a healthy direction. Woody Allen's stance is radical, scathing but real. It just hasn't moved in the right direction in a healthy direction. But I don't think the world is in good shape or that it's on the right track, but it's moving toward its own destruction. I have always been pessimistic about the human condition, but I think the world is much worse today, and I am very pessimistic about the future of the world, and in general, I am pessimistic about life. If that had been the conclusion of the answer, it would have left us much to be desired, yet he added: In a recent interview, Woody Allen in which he talked about his autobiography, he was asked that if he remained as a pessimistic person and the answer was yes, that at least he remained just as pessimistic as he has always been even more so. I remember we're all shocked at pessimists and labeled absurd. In March, while we were at a planning meeting, participants were divided into two sides: those of us who believed that everything would return to normal after Easter or when later in May and those who predicted that before October things would not be improved. It is preferable to put your feet on the ground and hold our ground well than to be building castles in the air because as things stand, we're going to drop them. At least it's better than the pink panorama and making us illusions that everything will be fine and better just by wanting it. We're reaching the last days of one of History's toughest years and predicting grey skies and looking at all ant color doesn't seem like a good idea in the first instance, but believe me, it is. It seems like something foolish to express, but I think a dose of pessimism right now isn't all that bad. The most important thing I've learned is that optimism doesn't work. ![]()
