More quotes by Earl Nightingale
Getting rich, or becoming outstanding at anything is all a matter of attitude. You must make up your mind once and for all - you commit yourself - and then just stay with it until you finally have what you set out to get.
Earl Nightingale
Visualization is the human being's vehicle to the future - good, bad, or indifferent. It's strictly in our control.
Earl Nightingale
Courage changes things for the better...[With courage you can] stay with something long enough to succeed at it, realizing that it usually takes two, three or four times as long to succeed as you thought or hoped.
Earl Nightingale
Your world is a living expression of how you are using and have used your mind.
Earl Nightingale
Success is not the result of making money earning money is the result of success — and success is in direct proportion to our service.
Earl Nightingale
Don't take the attitude of waiting for people to be nice to you - be nice to them. Don't sit in front of a cold stove waiting for the heat. Put in the fuel. Act first.
Earl Nightingale
Getting along well with other people is still the world's most needed skill. With it...there is no limit to what person can do. We need people, we need the cooperation of others. There is very little we can do alone
Earl Nightingale
When the days are too short, chances are you are living at your best.
Earl Nightingale
It's never too late, for with a purpose, a worthy goal and a motivation to reach those upper layers on the pyramid, a person can travel further in a few years than he might otherwise travel in a lifetime.
Earl Nightingale
If you don't have a good model for success, just look at what everybody else is doing and do the opposite.
Earl Nightingale
Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.
Earl Nightingale
It is our attitude toward life that determines life's attitude toward us. We get back what we put out.
Earl Nightingale
All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord.
Earl Nightingale
We become what we think about.
Earl Nightingale
Ideas are elusive, slippery things. Best to keep a pad of paper and a pencil at your bedside, so you can stab them during the night before they get away.
Earl Nightingale
Don't concern yourself too much with how you are going to achieve your goal - leave that completely to a power greater than yourself. All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord, and at the right time.
Earl Nightingale
The best way to help a man increase his output is to help build the man. Help him increase his stature as a man, and he will just naturally do better-on the job and off.
Earl Nightingale
We tend to minimize the things we can do, the goals we can accomplish, and for some equally strange reason we think other people can accomplish things that we cannot. I want you to understand that that is not true. You have deep reservoirs of talent and ability within you that you can bring to the surface and achieve all that you desire
Earl Nightingale
Don't catch the bad and infectious attitudes of others.
Earl Nightingale
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
Earl Nightingale
