Any fact facing us, however difficult, even seemingly hopeless, is not so important as our attitude toward that fact. How you think about a fact may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. You may permit a fact to overwhelm you mentally before you deal with it actually. On the other hand, a confident and optimistic thought pattern can overcome or modify the fact altogether.

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

And if the mind thinks with a believing attitude one can do amazing things.

Always remember that problems contain values that have improvement potential.

We've all heard that we have to learn from our mistakes, but I think it's more important to learn from successes. If you learn only from your mistakes, you are inclined to learn only errors.

You became a worrier by practicing worry. You can become free of worry by practicing the opposite and stronger habit of faith. With all the strength and perseverance you can command, start practicing faith.

I've got great faith in the essential fairness and decency - you may say goodness - of the human being.
