Remez Sasson "A positive attitude awakens inner strength, energy, motivation and initiative." Bo Bennett "Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can't be done." Calvin Coolidge "If I had permitted my failures, or what seemed to me at the time a lack of success, to discourage me I cannot see any way in which I would ever have made progress." Henry Ford "If you think you can do it, or you think you can't do it, You are right." Joseph Campbell "Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging." |
