ATTITUDE
|
If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito.
African Proverb

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Charles Darwin

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company ...a church ...an individual.
Charles Swindoll
|
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... you are in charge of your Attitudes.
Charles Swindoll
|
Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.
Cicero
|
Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing.
Clive James
|
To succeed as individuals, we have to think of ourselves as CEOs of our lives. Your first job as CEO should be to resolve not to let negative behavior impact your performance any longer. Just like the big corporations that have to adapt to the needs of a changing market, you as an individual are responsible for your company's training, efficiency, sales development, research and development. Unless you are fully prepared to meet the challenges of today and the future you will meet the fate of any company that is similarly unprepared. You will fail.
Denis Waitley
|
Nothing should ever prevent you from thinking big. To me it's very simple: If you are going to be thinking anyway, you may as well think big. Most people think small because most people are afraid of success, afraid of making decisions and afraid of winning. And that gives people like me a great advantage.
Donald Trump
|
All big things in this world are done by people who are naive and have an idea that is obviously impossible.

Eleanor Roosevelt

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
|
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
Frank Outlaw
|
A thinker sees his own actions as experiments and questions--as attempts to find out something. Success and failure are for him answers above all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
|
Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world.
George Bernard Shaw
|
If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears.
Glenn Clark
|
He who does nothing for others does nothing for himself.
Goethe
|
There is no one luckier than he who thinks himself so.
Goethe
|
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
Groucho Marx

People do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.
James Allen
|
Someone's opinion of you does not have to become your reality.
Les Brown

I think laughter may be a form of courage. As humans we sometimes stand tall and look into the sun and laugh, and I think we are never more brave than when we do that.
Linda Ellerbee

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you can do. Attitude determines how well you do it.
Lou Holtz

The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it.
Lou Holtz
|
Up to a point a man's life is shaped by environment, heredity, and movements and changes in the world about him. Then there comes a time when it lies within his grasp to shape the clay of his life into the sort of think he wishes to be. Only the weak blame parents, their race, lack of good fortune, or the quirks of fate. Everyone has it within his power to say, This I am today, that I will be tomorrow
Louis L'Amour
|
The universe is change, our life is what our thoughts make it.
Marcus Arelius Antoninus
|
You are about as happy as you make up your mind to be.
Mark Twain
|
There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium, and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.
Martha Graham
|
We become what we think about.
Napolean Hill

There is no great genius without some touch of madness.
Seneca

There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of the people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will have truly defeated age.
Sophia Loren

Money is like sand, it can wash away. But, passion is innate and enduring.

Your vision of yourself and your possibilities is a mental picture of what you will become. We must carve our own success in the same way that a sculptor chips away at a block of marble. Like the sculptor who creates a masterpiece from a mental model, we must begin our journey to success by visualizing what we want to become. The trouble with most people is that they never dare to realize their highest possibilities. They misuse their imagination by daydreaming and wishing their lives away. Think positive and clearly visualize your possibilities. Positive visualizations will help you seize the opportunity for greatness within you.

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or be killed. Every morning in Africa a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve. So whether you're the lion or gazelle, when the sun comes up, start running.

When our attitude towards ourselves is big, and our attitude toward others is generous and merciful, we attract big and generous portions of success.

I have found that the greatest help in meeting any problem with decency and self-respect and whatever courage is demanded, is to know where you yourself stand. That is, to have in words what you believe and are acting from.
William Faulkner

Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive, along with which comes the inner voice which says, `This is the real me,' and when you have found that attitude, follow it.
