Image
Change your mental imagery, and the feelings will take care of themselves.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Begin to imagine what the desirable outcome would be like. Go over these mental pictures and delineate details and refinements. Play them over and over to yourself.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
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
Image
You can do only one thing at a time. I simply tackle one problem and concentrate all efforts on what I am doing at the moment.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
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.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
It doesn't matter how many times you have failed.... What matters is the successful attempt.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Self-improvement is the name of the game, and your primary objective is to strengthen yourself, not to destroy an opponent.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Thus man of all creatures is more than a creature, he is also a creator. Man alone can direct his success mechanism by the use of imagination, or imaging ability.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
This is where you will win the battle - in the playhouse of your mind.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Happiness isn't something that happens to you. It is what you yourself do and determine upon.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Develop an enthusiasm for life, create a need for more life, and you will receive more life.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Study the situation thoroughly, go over in your imagination the various courses of action possible to you and the consequences which can and may follow from each course. Pick out the course which gives the most promise and go ahead.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
A healthy strong ego, with plenty of self-esteem, does not feel itself threatened by every innocent remark.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Faith, courage, optimism, looking forward, bring us new life and more life. Futility, frustration, living in the past are not only characteristic of 'old age' they contribute to it.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
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
Image
Plan all you want for the future. Prepare for it. But don't worry about how you will react tomorrow, or even five minutes from now. Your creative mechanism will react appropriately in the 'now' if you pay attention to what is happening now.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
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
Image
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
Image
When you're not goal-striving, not looking forward, you're not really living.
Maxwell Maltz
Image
Self-image sets the boundaries of individual accomplishment.
