YOU TOO CAN BE A WINNER !
LOSERS DO THE OPPOSITE
THEY LET THE LIMITATIONS OF THE ENVIRONMENT
SHAPE THEIR THINKING
WINNERS LET THEIR THINKING SHAPE
THE LIMITATIONS OF THE ENVIRONMENT
You have a choice for your attitudes....
Which one are you going to wear ?
Are you going to have an energized day...
or ... You have other plans ?!?
If You Don't Know Where You're Going
Any Road Will Get You There
If you see someone without a smile
Give them one of yours
Some people complain that roses have thorns
Others are thankful that thorns have roses

If dreams are for sale
Which do you buy?
- Creative Problem Solving -
Losers when faced with new ideas say: ‘yes…but’
Winners say: ‘yes, of course…and also’
Learn from the mistakes of others
You can never live long enough
To make them all yourself
- Eleanor Roosevelt -
It is a lot easier to react
than
It is to think
People may forget what you said
But
They will always remember how you made them feel
Be disciplined enough to go somewhere
And
Relaxed enough to go somewhere else
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour
- William Blake -
The fire you kindle for your enemy
Often burns yourself more than him.
The amateur reacts first
before
Taking the time to think !!
Life is not the way
It’s supposed to be
It’s the way it is
The way you cope with it
Makes the difference
If others feel jealous and hostile towards you:
Remember
Things could be worse.
You could be them!
Be the change you want to see
in the world
- Ghandi -
‘STAYING UPBEAT’ opportunity comes.
If you are not alert you miss it....
And the worse thing is
You may not even know that you missed it!!!
Minds are like parachutes - they only function when open.
- Thomas Dewey –
Difficult experiences teach you Life lessons
Are you a fast Learner?
Don’t count the days
Make the days count
If you love life
Life will love you back
Instead of cursing the darkness
Light a candle
Whatever you ‘do’
Begins with
A ‘first step’
So, take it
Entering a room
Some people bring their glow
Others bring only gloom.
What do you bring?
Don't run away from fear or problems
Instead
Go toward wisdom and 'staying upbeat'
It is 'not unfair',
it 'just is'
The best way
To cheer yourself up
Is
To cheer somebody else up
The best vitamin for making friends:
B1
A pessimist's blood type is always
b-negative
Listen to the sounds of silence...
We live for a hundred years
We worry for a thousand
Pain is inevitable
But
Misery is optional
= Refuse to play the victim =
Have a
Mental Health Day
= Only positives are allowed in today =
Keep it simple
Easy does it
It's only disagreeable
and
You can handle that
Whether it is the best of times or the worst of times
It is the only time you've got
One ray of sunshine is enough
To drive away many clouds
- St Francis of Assissi -
Ease the pounding of your heart
By the quieting of your mind
Think of one positive idea
and
Pass it on
If you're lonely while you are alone
You’re in bad company
- Sartre -
optimist goes to the window in the morning and says:
‘Good morning God!’
A pessimist goes to the window and says:
‘Oh God, morning!’
Remember:
Each ‘exit’ leads you to an ‘entry’
You cannot make someone love you
All you can do is be someone who can be loved
The rest is up to them
You can keep going
Long after you think you can't
No matter how thin you slice it
There are always two sides
You can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes
After that, you'd better know something
