Silver Creek The Catch

Pessimism was a good one to choose, and likely chosen because Spring will have seen it everywhere. The trek over from Phoenix Maplewood had been a difficult one, and full of ups and downs — not just in terrain. Shreya hadn't outright watched Spring throughout any of this, as she wasn't the type to hang around and analyse passers-by, but she did think the girl had a sunny aura about her.

But was that enough?

The first thing to keep in mind is something you likely know well enough: pessimism is infectious. All good leaders lead by example. You may not always feel like this famine has an end in sight, but doubt is best kept behind closed doors. She wasn't talking about lying, and even hiding. She was talking about picking and choosing. If you have something to grumble about, you have the choice to spread it or keep it quiet. Do you do well with that kind of thing?
