Quote

The real person you are is revealed in the moments when you're certain no other person is watching. When no one is watching, you are driven by what you expect of yourself.

Image
Your level of achievement will rise to meet the level of your purpose.
Ralph Marston
Image
Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality.
Ralph Marston
Image
The hours and days you spend being annoyed or frustrated are times when you deny yourself access to life's best possibilities. When you live in anger and resentment, you cut yourself off from life's goodness.
Ralph Marston
Image
Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it. The time you spend living in fear is time you cannot spend living in love. The time you spend hiding and retreating from life is time you cannot spend growing and advancing and achieving.
Ralph Marston
Image
Instead of jumping at the chance to be offended, choose to be amused. Rather than filling your thoughts with resentment, fill your heart with forgiveness.
Ralph Marston
Image
When you think you know it all, there's not much that you'll learn.
Ralph Marston
Image
Look, really look, at how beautiful this day is. Let go of the worries and anxieties and judgments, and see the beauty.
Ralph Marston
Image
Dreams are unrealistic, impractical, demanding - and absolutely essential to living a rich and fulfilling life.
Ralph Marston
Image
Every positive thing in your life represents a single unique blessing. Every negative thing in your life has the opportunity to become a double blessing. For when you turn a negative into a positive, you gain twice. You are no longer burdened with the negative situation, and in addition to that you are strengthened by a new positive force.
Ralph Marston
Image
Don't let the silly little dramas of each day get you down. For you are here to do great things.
Ralph Marston
Image
There's nothing that says you have to succeed in the same way as someone else. In fact, there's nothing that says you must define success in the same way as someone else.
Ralph Marston
Image
When you do the right thing, enjoy it! When you take positive actions, enjoy them. After all, they are leading you toward positive results. Pat yourself on the back. Truly enjoy the fact that you're making positive progress, and the negative temptations will have no power over you.
Ralph Marston
Image
Being positive does not mean ignoring the negative. Being positive means overcoming the negative.
Ralph Marston
Image
Dare to dream big dreams. For those are the dreams that have the power to push your whole world forward.
Ralph Marston
Image
When was the last time you spent a quiet moment just doing nothing - just sitting and looking at the sea, or watching the wind blowing the tree limbs, or waves rippling on a pond, a flickering candle or children playing in the park?
Ralph Marston
Image
One of the greatest motivators is desire. If the desire is strong enough you will do whatever it takes to achieve. Just connect your actions with your true desires.
Ralph Marston
Image
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
Ralph Marston
Image
Instead of being intimidated by the limitations, be inspired to find new ways around them.
Ralph Marston
Image
Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you, and you'll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you'll find that you have more of it.
Ralph Marston
Image
Stopping before you reach the goal does not make the discouragement go away. All it does is make the discouragement permanent. Instead, keep going, keep making the attempt, until you make that last, fulfilling attempt that brings the success you desire.
Ralph Marston
