Choose to live in a place where your eyes are always open to the positive possibilities.
Ralph Marston
Image
You are what you are most profoundly thankful for, and what you love.
Ralph Marston
Image
Dreams are unrealistic, impractical, demanding - and absolutely essential to living a rich and fulfilling life.
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
Your life is constantly nourished by your thoughts. Whatever the direction your life is moving, your thoughts have led you there.
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

Your life is magnificent not because someone says it is, but because you choose to see it as such
Ralph Marston
Image
Remember why you started, remember where you're headed, think of how great it will be to get there, and keep going.
Ralph Marston
Image
Care, because it is what you do. Care, and be vibrantly alive.
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
The sooner you act, the bigger difference you can make.
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
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
Image
If you focus on the obstacles, then you give them more power.
Ralph Marston
Image
Feelings are determined by how one chooses to respond to various situations and events.
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
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
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
Image
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
Image
Be wary of those who seek to steal your dream. Be even more wary of those who seek to tell you what your dream should be.
Ralph Marston
