QUOTES:

Choose not to be harmed, and you won't feel harmed. Don't feel harmed, and you haven't been. Marcus AureliusMy motto is water off a duck's back. Meaning: don't let negativity weigh you down, perpetuate positive thinking. Jinkx MonsoonYou cannot have a positive life and a negative mind. Joyce MeyerOnce you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results. Willie NelsonDon't respond to negativity with more negativity. Just put your head down and prove your critics wrong. Frank SinatraIn times of great stress or adversity, it's always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive. Lee LacoccaJust one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day. Dalai LamaThere is a basic law that like attracts like. Negative thinking attracts negative results. Conversely, if a person habitually thinks optimistically and hopefully, his positive thinking sets in motion creative forces - and success instead of eluding him flows toward him. Norman Vincent PealeNegativity is cannibalistic. The more you feed it, the bigger and stronger it grows. Bobby Darnell
