Robert, Just to make sure I got that right: You are with being positive or you are saying the being positive is not as easy ?

This was inspired by people who complain that project management is like riding a bike. Except the bike is on fire, and they're hell (t-shirt ad on Facebook).
So be happy in the role, or find something else to do.

Good One Bruce !
How about this:
Please don't complain /
Instead work to maintain /
Otherwise sit and refrain

Ride your bike on fire /
Pedal as hard as you can /
See them ooh and aah
