“Watch carefully that you do not sell yourself short or out. Whatever you are tempted to sell yourself to or for is not as valuable as you are. It can be easy to give in to despair, give up to mistakes, and give out resentment. The real challenge is to be strong enough to cast away despair and conquer the desire to stop trying. So, build those things inside yourself which are solid and cannot be shaken.”
— John-Roger
“I EXPECT great things to happen today. I will look for the good and be open to the opportunities around me.Read it and repeat it. Intention matters. How you see the world determines the world you see.”
— Jon Gordon
“The thoughts you send out to others will have a far greater impact upon you than upon them. Unlike a material possession, when you release a thought or give it to someone else, it also stays with you. It may remain buried in your subconscious long after your conscious mind has forgotten about it. Like chickens that return to the coop at night, such thoughts may flash into your consciousness when you least expect them. When your thoughts are positive, you never have to worry about the damage you may do to yourself through negative thinking. Cheerful, productive, happy thoughts that are buried in your subconscious bring positive results when they recur, and by their presence they encourage the maintenance of a positive attitude in all that you do.”
— Napoleon Hill
“You have the power to tolerate anyone and any situation. But tolerance is not just suffering in silence. It means going beyond any personal discomfort you may feel, and giving a gift to whom ever you would tolerate.
Give your time, attention, understanding, compassion, care – all are gifts, which paradoxically, you also receive in the process of giving.
And, as you do, you will experience your own self esteem and inner strength grow. In this way you can turn tolerance into strength.”
