Ralph Marston

Ralph Marston
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
Ralph Marston

Ralph Marston
Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Be open to your feelings and experience them while they are here. Then be open to the feelings that will come next. Your feelings are a part of your experience. Yet no mere feeling, however intense it may seem, is your permanent reality.
Ralph Marston
Choose to live in a place where your eyes are always open to the positive possibilities.
Ralph Marston
There is no limit to what you can imagine. And with commitment, with effort, what you can imagine you can become. Put your mind to work for you. Believe that you can do it. The world will tell you that you can't. Yet, in your belief you'll find the strength, you'll find the ability, to do it anyway.
Ralph Marston
Being positive does not mean ignoring the negative. Being positive means overcoming the negative.
Ralph Marston
When you think you know it all, there's not much that you'll learn.
Ralph Marston
If something goes wrong, don’t whine about it. Have a spine about it. Adjust, adapt, and move forward.
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
You cannot expect to get the effect when you neglect to create the cause.
Ralph Marston
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
Life is not always easy. And that is a major reason why it is so precious. Many of life's best rewards are possible only because you must work your way through difficult challenges to get to them. If everything in life were easy, there would be no opportunity for real fulfillment.
Ralph Marston
