The word resentment means to re-feel...to feel again. Someone wrongs or wounds you; in resenting it, you re-feel the injury. And you re-hurt yourself. The Hebrew Talmud says that a person who bears a grudge is "Like one who, having cut one hand while handling a knife, avenges himself by stabbing the other hand."

Go out of your way to talk optimistically about everything.

There are some things you can't learn from others. You have to pass through the fire.

Be interesting, be enthusiastic... and don't talk too much.

Good will cannot flow toward you unless it flows from you.

Never talk defeat. Use words like hope, belief, faith, victory.

Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure.
