There are very real obstacles and challenges to any course of action. And there's no need to add to them, by making up obstacles of your own. Unchain yourself from the bondage of your own thinking.
Ralph Marston

More quotes by Ralph Marston
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
Do what is right, and you'll have no lasting regrets. Do what is right, and put yourself on the side of truth, goodness, and the best of life.
Ralph Marston
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
When you think you know it all, there's not much that you'll learn.
Ralph Marston
In every kind of endeavor, there are ample opportunities for extra effort. Grab those opportunities, embrace that extra effort and transform ordinary mediocrity into bright and shining excellence.
Ralph Marston
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
When you find yourself ready to complain about what you don't have, stop for a moment to consider what incredible things you do have. And resolve to make the most of it all.
Ralph Marston
Just as surely as you can create a thought in your mind, you can create this day in the way you choose.
Ralph Marston
If you so choose, each day can be filled with even more joy than the one before. If you so choose, even the most seemingly random events can work in your favor.
Ralph Marston
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Ralph Marston
Dare to dream big dreams. For those are the dreams that have the power to push your whole world forward.
Ralph Marston
What a joy it is that the road ahead is an uphill climb. For where it leads is all the way to the top.
Ralph Marston
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.
Ralph Marston
Rest when you're weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work.
Ralph Marston
Almost everyone does just enough to get by. Those who achieve spectacular success also do enough to get by then they add a little bit of extra effort. That little bit of extra effort makes an enormous difference.
Ralph Marston
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
Today is plenty right now is enough. Tomorrow will come in good time. Until it does, live the depth of now.
Ralph Marston
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
Turn your attention for a while away from the worries and anxieties. Remind yourself of all your many blessings.
Ralph Marston
Instead of being intimidated by the limitations, be inspired to find new ways around them.
Ralph Marston
