When it rains it pours, or does it?

Sometimes we as humans tend to notice things more when they happen in succession; however, things happen the same way pretty much all the time. Case in point, using a sports analogy, when a team gets on a winning streak the public tends to take note and pay more attention. The same also happens in reverse, for example when a team goes on a losing streak. Consequently, the same happens when things tend to go wrong in life and it seems that everything keeps going wrong and we tend to overlook the one positive and dwell on the negative. So, in life we must look for the small victories and not look for streaks because they are an anomaly more than anything else. Keep pushing, keep striving and when we look at the overall picture we can truly savor the positives that life has to offer.
