Topic: Are you a Tigger or an Eeyore? | |
---|---|
I watched a professor ( Randy Pausch) on TV today.
He's a married father of three, a very popular professor at Carnegie Mellon University—and he is dying. He is suffering from pancreatic cancer, which he says has returned after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Doctors say he has only a few months to live. It was very profound. He mentioned: There's an academic tradition called the 'Last Lecture.' Hypothetically, if you knew you were going to die and you had one last lecture, what would you say to your students? In the lecture he discussed how you should choose to live your life as a Tigger or an Eeyore. Tigger He is cheerful, outgoing, competitive in a friendly way, and completely confident in himself. Eeyore He goes about with a pessimistic attitude, never really seeing the bright side. So... How would you chooose to live your life? I choose the life of Tigger |

As much as I want to say I'm a tigger cause hes awesome, I'm more of Eeyore because my emotions weight heavy on my mind all the time, and I'm like "oh great, another problem....this will never end".

I prefer to be both. I enjoy being all happy and seeing the bright side of things yet, I'm also smart enough to know that not all things are so cheerful and wonderful. I say, that way, I am actually living life to the fullest as I am seeing ALL aspects of life and not being blind to one or the other.

I am for sure a tigger, i look at this way, you never know when you leave your house in the morning if it could be the last time you ever leave it. Now i know battling a disease like cancer is one thing, god forbid accidents and such happen, i smile and have fun everyday as if it were my last. Life is too short to sweat things, even though we all do it, i do it too, but im here to have fun and make as many people smile as i can.

I guess I'm more of a Tigger usually. I have my Eeyore days though
|
|
|
|
I'm an Eyeore.
Always have been, I guess. Since there has always been more bad in my life then good. Hard to be bouncy when things are like that. |
