Human
beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. William James When one
door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the
closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us. Helen Keller The
greater part of our happiness or misery depends on our dispositions and not
on our circumstances. We carry the seeds of the one or the other about with
us in our minds wherever we go. Martha Washington A
positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough
people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright The thing
always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it
happen. Frank Lloyd Wright In every
block of marble I see a statue as plain as though it stood before me, shaped
and perfect in attitude and action. I have only to hew away the rough walls
that imprison the lovely apparition to reveal it to the other eyes as mine
see it. Michelangelo Nothing
is good or bad, but thinking makes it so. William Shakespeare Take the
attitude of a student. Never be too big to ask questions. Never know too much
to learn something new. Og Mandino The
greatest revolution of our generation is the discovery that human beings, by
changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of
their lives. William James You
cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself
one. James A. Froude
We are
all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. Oscar Wilde The
greatest part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, not our
circumstances. Martha Washington Sooner or
later, those who win are those who think they can. Richard Bach Our
attitude toward life determines life's attitude towards us. John N. Mitchell It is our
attitude at the beginning of a difficult undertaking which, more than
anything else, will determine its successful outcome. William James If a man
does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a
different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured
or far away. Henry David Thoreau The
greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life
by altering his attitudes of mind. William James An
optimist is the human personification of spring. Susan J. Bissonette Everything
can be taken from a man but ... the last of the human freedoms - to choose
one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way. Victor Frankl The
greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their
lives by altering their attitudes of mind. As you think, so shall you be William James Whenever
you're in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the
difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor
is attitude. William James Attitudes
are nothing more than habits of thoughts, and habits can be acquired. An
action repeated becomes an attitude realized. Adopting
the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a positive one Hans Selye The only
disability in life is a bad attitude. Scott Hamilton Excellence
is not a skill. It is an attitude. Ralph Marston Abundance
is, in large part, an attitude Sue Patton Thoele The only
tired I was, was tired of giving in Rosa Parks Human
beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. William James The
remarkable thing is that we really love our neighbour as ourselves: we do
unto others as we do unto ourselves. We hate others when we hate ourselves.
We are tolerant toward others when we tolerate ourselves. We forgive others
when we forgive ourselves. We are prone to sacrifice others when we are ready
to sacrifice ourselves. Eric Hoffer If you
think you can, you can. And if you think you can't, you're right. Henry Ford |
