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
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
Image
Don’t make excuses for why you can’t get it done. Focus on all the reasons why you must make it happen.
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 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
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
Image
Rest when you're weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work.
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
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
Ralph Marston
Image
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
Image
Doubt is merely a thought. When experience proves it wrong, it will quickly go away.
Ralph Marston
Image
Be thankful for it all. And beyond your many blessings, will be many, many more.
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
Turn your attention for a while away from the worries and anxieties. Remind yourself of all your many blessings.
Ralph Marston
Image
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
Image
Lasting achievement, whatever the endeavor, comes from a commitment to excellence every step of the way.
Ralph Marston
Image
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
Image
Truly appreciate life, and you'll find that you have more of it. [at least it will feel like it!]
Ralph Marston
Image
Even when there seems to be nothing else, there is hope.
Ralph Marston
Image
Be someone who lives with joy, with purpose, as your own light brightly shines. Be, in every moment, the special someone you are truly meant to be.
Ralph Marston
