The things that get me through the hard times

"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, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than apprearance, giftedness, or skill.
It will make or break a company....a church...a home.
The remarkable thing is that we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
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% how I react to it.
And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes."



"all that we are is the result of what we have thought" - Buddha

"all power if from within, and therefore under our control" - Robert Collier

"what you think about, you bring about"

"Wealth is the product of man's ability to think." -Ayn Rand

"The key is to have a dream that inspires us to go beyond our limits." -Robert Kriegel

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." -Eleanor Roosevelt

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.
Buddha

Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee of peace.
Buddha

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Buddha

We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Buddha

We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
Buddha
