Nothing during the year is so impressively convincing as the vision Christmas brings of what this world would be if love became the daily practice of human beings.

Keep your mental and spiritual contact points cleaned so that God can operate through your mind.

Don't bother. The glass is half-empty.

The greatest measure of a human being isn't how he handles himself when things are going well, but how he handles himself when things are going badly, when defeat comes.

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

Practice hope. As hopefulness becomes a habit, you can achieve a permanently happy spirit.

Plant seeds of expectation in your mind; cultivate thoughts that anticipate achievement. Believe in yourself as being capable of overcoming all obstacles and weaknesses.
