Remember you will not always win. Some days, the most resourceful individual will taste defeat. But there is, in this case, always tomorrow - after you have done your best to achieve success today.

More quotes by Maxwell Maltz
You will act like the sort of person you conceive yourself to be.
Maxwell Maltz
Our self image and our habits tend to go together. Change one and you will automatically change the other.
Maxwell Maltz
When a person has adequate self-esteem little slights offer no threat at all - they are simply passed over and ignored. Even deeper emotional wounds are likely to heal faster and cleaner, with no festering sores to poison life and spoil happiness.
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
Your present negative beliefs were formed by thought PLUS feelings. Generate enough emotion, or deep feeling and your new thoughts and ideas will cancel them out.
Maxwell Maltz
Of all the traps and pitfalls in life, self-disesteem is the deadliest, and the hardest to overcome: for it is a pit designed and dug by our own hands, summed up in the phrase, 'It's no use - I can't do it.'
Maxwell Maltz
Live in the present. The past is gone the future is unknown - but the present is real, and your opportunities are now.
Maxwell Maltz
Happiness isn't something that happens to you. It is what you yourself do and determine upon.
Maxwell Maltz
Man maintains his balance, poise, and sense of security only as he is moving forward.
Maxwell Maltz
Your nervous system cannot tell the difference between an imagined experience and a ‘real’ experience.
Maxwell Maltz
Your automatic guidance system cannot guide you when you're stalled, “standing still”.
Maxwell Maltz
Failure feelings - fear, anxiety, lack of self-confidence - do not spring from some heavenly oracle. They are not written in the stars. They are not holy gospel. Nor are they intimations of a set and decided fate which means that failure is decreed and decided. They originate from your own mind.
Maxwell Maltz
Do not say to yourself, 'I am going to act this way tomorrow.' Just say to yourself - 'I am going to imagine myself acting this way NOW - for 30 minutes - today.'
Maxwell Maltz
Ignore past failures and forge ahead.
Maxwell Maltz
True success and true happiness not only go together but each other enhances the other.
Maxwell Maltz
We, whoever we are, must have a daily goal in our lives, no matter how small or great, to make that day mean something.
Maxwell Maltz
Mental pictures offer us an opportunity to practice new traits and attitudes, which otherwise we could not do. This is possible because again - your nervous system cannot tell the difference between an actual experience and one that is vividly imagined.
Maxwell Maltz
Emptiness is a symptom that you are not living creatively. You either have not goal that is important enough to you, or you are not using your talents and efforts in a striving toward an important goal.
Maxwell Maltz
As soon as the error has been recognized and corrections made, it's equally important that the error be forgotten and the successful attempt remembered and dwelt upon.
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.
