“The greatest challenge we humans now face is not scientific or technological or even economic. It is emotional… The real demon is the ignorance and fear that lead to the hatred that leads to the judgments that lead to the killings in wars. No one is free of it. All we can do is try to refuse to live under its rule. All we can do is try to forgive.” Edward Hallowell: Dare to Forgive
“If we cannot forgive, we end up crucifying ourselves on the very cross we construct for our scapegoats. Our hate will be the hatred in ourselves that we have repressed, and that hatred of others masking our own self-hatred will continue to crucify us in their name.” Michael H. Crosby: The Seven Last Words
“Carrying a grudge against someone or against life can bring on the old age stoop, just as much as carrying a heavy weight on your shoulders would. People with emotional scars, grudges, and the like are living in the past, which is characteristic of old people.” Maxwell Maltz: Psycho-Cybernetics
“Encountering obstacles after we’ve made a determination [to achieve a goal] isn’t just an indication we’re making progress. It’s often the very thing required for victory.” Alex Lickerman MD: The Undefeated Mind: On the Science of Constructing an Indestructible Self
“Somewhere deep inside we all desire happiness and peace through authentic productivity. I say productivity because by being productive, in an authentic way, we make the world a better place. We sustain a support system that pays if forward and all of humanity shares in the bountiful harvest. It’s a win/win deal.” Jay Johnston: A Leap of Faith Takes Courage
“When we don’t feel safe, fear drives our actions and interactions. Fear causes us to not be ourselves as individuals. In organizations, fear holds us back from performing at the level we’re capable of. When we’re afraid, we’re guarded, cautious, and restrained, and we do everything we can to regain a feeling of security.” Jim Haudan: The Art of Engagement: Bridging the Gap Between People and Possibilities
“It is our self-preserving nature, to see something daunting on the trail, and slow down. Slowing down gives us the illusion of increased control. But riding slowly requires more control, balance and energy. When we ride cautiously, the rocks are bigger, the climbs longer and the ability to stay upright diminishes. Conversely, steady forward movement reduces energy demands, and decreases balance and skill demands. Momentum carries us over obstacles with less exertion and effort. When we approach a part of the trail where our inclination is to slow down, we should try the opposite and speed up.” Susan Thompson: Mountain Biking for Life: Finding Your Path
“Gradually I discovered that a golden thread runs through all the teachings and makes them work for those who sincerely accept and apply them, and that thread can be named in the single word belief... Why belief works miracles is something that cannot be satisfactorily explained; but have no doubt that there’s genuine magic in believing.” Claude M. Bristol: The Magic of Believing
“Though hidden from plain sight, on the other side of every challenge is the opportunity to experience immense personal growth. Starting now, make the effort to view all challenges that come your way as hidden opportunities. This simple shift in mindset will make a tremendous difference in the number of accomplishments you experience throughout your life.” Josh Hinds: Live Big: It’s Your Life
“The most obvious thing about which you can do nothing now is your past behavior. Everything that you ever did is simply over, and while you can almost always learn from it, and sometimes change effects that are continuing into the present, you cannot undo what you have done.” Wayne Dyer: Pulling Your Own Strings
“Use your mistakes as a springboard into new areas of discovery; accidents can hold the key to innovation. When things fall apart, make art. Carry this spirit through to every area of your life.” Philip Toshio Sudo: Zen Guitar
“A distinguishing characteristic of the creative mind is that it can accept reversals of fortune without emotional damage – indeed, processes them at once into something rich and strange.” Edmund Morris: Beethoven: The Universal Composer
