Happy Chinese New Year and Gong Xi Fa Chai. I would like to quote from Daily Dose of Happiness the following interesting point:
What do you see?
OPPORTUNITY IS: N-O-W-H-E-R-E
Did you see "nowhere" or "now here"? It's all in how we look at things.

Happy CNY ko ko! I see both of them.
What do you see?
OPPORTUNITY IS: N-O-W-H-E-R-E
Emm..At 1st I saw No-Where. After read through your msg just can see Now-Here.
What is your defination of Opportunity is No Where & Opportunity is Now here?
Actually Opportunity is from anywhere just we want to "collect" it or not, right?
Joanne:
I had the same observation too. I saw NO WHERE, then NOW HERE.
If a person sees Opportunity is No Where, it means he/she is pessimitic and doesn't believe opportunity exists or he/she will even be presented an opportunity.
However, a person who sees Opportunity is Now Here are positive minded person who grabs opportunity whenever he come across them.
The most saddening part is many people falls into NO WHERE category. When opportunity knocks on their door, before they even understand who is knocking at the door, they have already chased it away. Do you agree?
And many people didn't see opportunity when it knocks on the door.
The human brain reads words based on overall shape. Everyone should read it as "nowhere" unless they are deliberately reading manually. E.g. People looking for a trick (this is probably why you see it diferently once "told" to look for something) or who haven't spoken english for enough years yet (their brain has not yet fully memorised the shapes, and is still sometimes reading letter by letter).
Nothing to do with optimism/pessimism. This kind of thing is very predictable and used in conjuring tricks.
