Ignore past failures and forge ahead.
Maxwell Maltz
One's capacity for friendship, which can be developed, is basic to one's capacity for happiness.
Maxwell Maltz

Maxwell Maltz
The most delightful surprise in life is to suddenly recognise your own worth.
Maxwell Maltz
People who say that life is not worthwhile are really saying that they themselves have no personal goals which are worthwhile. Prescription: Get yourself a goal worth working for. Better still, get yourself a project. Decide what you want out of a situation. Always have something ahead of you to “look forward to” — to work for and hope for.
Maxwell Maltz

Maxwell Maltz
To change a habit, make a conscious decision, then act out the new behavior.
Maxwell Maltz
We simply must get it through our heads that holding a low opinion of ourselves is not a virtue, but a vice.
Maxwell Maltz
We are injured and hurt emotionally, Not so much by other people or what they say and don't say, But by our own attitude and our own response.
Maxwell Maltz
A healthy strong ego, with plenty of self-esteem, does not feel itself threatened by every innocent remark.
Maxwell Maltz
The un-happiest of mortals is that man who insists upon reliving the past, over and over in imagination - continually criticizing himself for past mistakes - continually condemning himself for past sins.
