More quotes by Maxwell Maltz

Maxwell Maltz
If you make friends with yourself you will never be alone.

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

Our self image, strongly held, essentially determines what we become.
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
Adopt the motto: It doesn't matter who's right, but what's right.
