Both you fellas are preaching to the choir. I live by a very simple philosophy "you create your own luck in life". In no way do I carry the mindset of loss, at all. I'm a highly functional dude, all because I recognize that my accomplishments are all well within my control. To paraphrase Walter Sobchak, paraphrasing Theodor Herzl, "If you will it, it is no dream".
My point was that when you enter in to a situation where you know a person has an agenda, yet you need to utilize their soap box...best to document the occasion. Secretly. Insurance, not defeatism.

I was really just using it as a way to quote Walter Sobchak.
I couldn't agree more with your sentiment and I appreciate the Bertrand Russel suggestion. I've not read his work, and it's time I did. I remember liking this post though.
