“Your only limitations are self-imposed.”
Most real failures are due to limitations which men set up in their own minds. If they had the courage to go one step further, they would discover their error.”
Remember that time when you wanted to quit, but something drove you to keep going? It may have been your “other self.”
Who is my other self?
“Above everything else, get this fact clearly fixed in your mind, that your ‘other self’ will not do your work for you; it will only guide you intelligently in achieving for yourself the objects of your desires.
The “other self” follows no precedents, recognizes no limitations, and always finds a way to accomplish desired ends! It may meet with temporary defeat, but not with permanent failure.
It is during periods of great stress that we find our will and our inner strength.
Recognize that life is a cruel taskmaster and that either you master it or it masters you.
Make a commitment to catch yourself when you are feeling annoyed . . . and remember the Devil’s words, “Anyone who submits to annoyance by things he does not want is not definite. He is a drifter.”
“Most of the difficulties in which people find themselves are of their own making.” Many people today have a victim mentality which they use as an excuse to not take responsibility for their own lives.
