My personal quote for times when I could have taken the easy way.
"People (including myself) have to change their mind settings. You think negatively, you get negativity; on the other hand if you keep an open and positive mind... the sky is the limit."

This is a quote that just came to me. I hope it can be in great use to you.
"Discovering that you're the one who holds the key to unlock the prison of your unhappiness is empowering. However, to free yourself, you have to be able to tolerate the discomfort of discovering that you've been your own jailer."

So true!
"The more I think about it... The reason I am what I am today is because I've never stopped dreaming."

"If you make the right kind of decisions you will make the right kind of life."
Written in 2007 by Gene Paniccia --- Florida
"Some people say success is out of their reach; more than likely that could be because they are not working for it. Once you give up, it is easy to go downhill and constantly experience negative thoughts. Stay hopeful, work hard, take advantage of your resources, and success will come. People help people that are trying to help themselves."

"Review your own life. Are you balancing work with play, mental effort with physical effort, seriousness with humor? Your mind-body must first learn to live a rhythmical life in harmony with the world and natural laws to achieve great heights of successful living and efficient functioning."
Napoleon Hill --- Submitted by Lauren C. --- New Jersey
"As people, we tend to worry about the things that don't matter and forget about the things that do. Enjoy your life to the fullest because you never know when it's going to end. So smile more, love more and enjoy more. Dueling on things just ruins your life; being mad or upset with others, for things they have done, is just a waste of your energy. You can't change the past or the mistakes; just change your future."

I wrote this because a very good friend of my family died last week.
"You are unique! You are a lot like an invention! You are one of a kind! Do not try to conform to a mold that can be replicated! Each time you use a "prototype" it becomes distorted and loses its originality! You have no reason to be insecure about yourself, your position, or your worth! Your design is unique to your contribution and assignment! We cannot all be millionaires or scholars, Olympians or a president! However, you can be the best You! Continue the path that was designed just for you! Just be you!"

I was inspired by the Holy Spirit to encourage those who feel that they are being trampled over and underminded in their workplace by their peers and management team.
"If you think that someone else thinks that they are better than you, perhaps it is you who thinks they are better than you."

"Sanity makes no sense if you deliberately overlook the outstretched flaws of all."
Written in 2009 by Lyndon Smith --- South Africa
I was in a bad place in my mind and all seemed lost. I therefore had to change my line of thinking and what inspired me was the fact that people are different. My sanity depended on my outlook and not on their flaws!
"I once met a man who loudly proclaimed that NO ONE told him what to do or how to act. And just as loudly blamed everything and everyone but himself for his failures. I wonder whom he was trying to convince?"
Written in 2009 by Gary Anderson --- Illinois
"Whether or not we realize it, each of us has within us the ability to set some kind of example for people. Knowing this, would you rather be the one known for being the one who encouraged others, or the one who inadvertently discouraged those around you?"
Josh Hinds
"The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins."
Bob Moawad
"Going after anything worthwhile in life entailed risk, of course. A man of ambition and courage didn't let that stop or delay him. A man accepted the dangers, the element of chance. If he didn't, he won nothing."
John Jakes
"I like bad dreams. They make me appreciate the less worse reality."

"Never say never, for if you live long enough, chances are you will not be able to abide by its restrictions. Never is a long, undependable time, and life is too full of rich possibilities to have restrictions placed upon it."
Gloria Swanson --- Submitted by Lauren C. --- New Jersey
"Whatever happened in the past is the past. Whatever is going to happen in the future is going to be transformed to the past too. So whatever you do has to be forgotten?"

"Time to clean out the closet and place all un-wanted items in the trash. Do not waste your time on what it was, just understand what it's not and will never be."

"Take some time to step back and take a look at your life. Do you find that you are continually settling for things throughout the day that you do not want? If so, chances are high that you are suffering from low self esteem and may not have connected the two previously in your life. With this new awareness, new actions can spring. With new actions, new results can come into your life!"
Copyright © 2009 Michelle W. Seamons
New awareness, that can bring with it changes that we decide to make in our life, can be absolutely life transforming.
"It doesn't matter how high your education is, how wide your knowledge is or how smart you are. If you think you know everything, then you are very wrong. Even babies know something that we, as adults, don't know. To be able to recognize it, we must forget who we are - then look, listen and learn."

My father once told me this.
"If you can never manage to be happy with where you are at, you will never be happy wherever you go."
