Earl Nightingale quotes about
Mistakes are a natural part of growing up. They're to be expected and made light of. But children bloom like spring flowers under praise. They want so much to be noticed and appreciated, to excel and have that excellence noticed.
Everything in the world we want to do or get done, we must do with and through people. Every dollar we will ever earn must come from people. The person we love, and with whom we want to spend the rest of our life, is a human being with whom we must interact. Our children are individuals, each different from any other person who ever lived. And what affects them most is our attitude-the loving kindness they see and feel whenever we are around them. If you'll begin to develop and maintain an attitude that says yes to life and the world, you'll be astonished at the changes you'll see.
People can and do change.
Your rewards in life are in direct proportion to your service
On Christmas morning, our joy or our happiness can be at a very high level, not because of our anticipation of what we might receive but, rather, in anticipation of watching our loved ones open our gifts to them. In fact, if we're not careful, we can fail to register sufficient excitement and joy upon opening the gifts we receive from others. We must remember that they are happiest at that time and to give them top billing, to stretch their happiness to its full length.
Even if our home burns down we can rebuild it. But the things that we got for nothing, we can never replace.
Without a goal we are much like the man with a boat and nowhere to go. Goals give us the drive and energy we need to remain on track long enough for their accomplishment.
You must radiate success before it’ll come to you.
A rut is a grave with the ends kicked out.
Your rewards will be determined by the extent of your contribution, that is your service to others.
Visualization is the human being's vehicle to the future - good, bad, or indifferent. It's strictly in our control.
Do what experts since the dawn of recorded history have told you you must do: pay the price by becoming the person you want to become. It's not nearly as difficult as living unsuccessfully.
If honesty did not exist, it would have to be invented, as it is the surest way of getting rich.
You can't get rich unless you EN-rich.
