W. Clement Stone
A man of 25 has before him some 100,000 working hours should he retire at 65. How many of your working hours will be alive with the magnificent force of positive mental attitude? And how many of them will have the life knocked out of them with the stunning blows of negative mental attitude?
W. Clement Stone
The natural law of inertia: Matter will remain at rest or continue in uniform motion in the same straight line unless acted upon by some external force.
W. Clement Stone
Bring into reality the possibility of the improbable by acquiring a positive mental attitude. Say to yourself, as Henry Ford said to his engineers, Keep working!
W. Clement Stone
When thinking won't cure fear, action will.
W. Clement Stone
Unless your goal is against the laws of God or society, you can achieve it.
W. Clement Stone
So, you've got a problem? That's good! Why? Because repeated victories over your problems are the rungs on your ladder of success. With each victory, you grow in wisdom, stature and experience. You become a better, bigger, more successful person each time you meet a problem and tackle and conquer it with a positive mental attitude.
W. Clement Stone
Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you be careful the friends you choose for you will become like them.
