The pessimist complains about the overcast day and how dark it is, making it difficult to see.
The optimist hopes the clouds will clear up and the day will get better. 

The leader adjusts the light.
The change agent says, “Learn to move the clouds… ”

– Dr Gail Lewis

Clouds are moved by the wind… the wind determines their speed, direction, etc. 

A victim mentality complains about the impact of the clouds.
The passive-aggressive mentality hopes for the best, assumes the worst, and does nothing in the meantime.
The fixer address the the issue by changing course or strategy but doesn’t necessarily address the real issue or affect change. 

The change agent or person committed to transformation looks for how they can actually affect change. 

Learn to move the clouds… How?
Become the wind…
