An example:

Forgive me if I'm repeating someone's "signature quote". I don't remember where I read this and if it's even here in this forum, but it stuck and I thought I'd post it....

(May not be verbatum)

"You will not be remembered by others for who you are (or what you did?), but for how you made them feel"..........

This hits home for me. Ya know, do unto others as you would like to be done to you........ I feel that the right word, a smile, a compationate stroke on the shoulder, an ear to listen, and/or a positive affirmation can change a persons life. You never know when, but I believe it!!!!!!!!!! So, remember what you say and think about it before you say it, because it can affect someone (negatively, too, so be careful) and be life-altering or just what they needed at that very moment....

SMILE, it's contagious!!! ---There's another quote.... I don't know if someone is responsible for it or it's anonymous, but it's great!

Oh, and it's important to put who the quote came from (I didn't know the others above, but here's an example of one):

"If it is worth doing, it is worth taking a risk." ~ Coach Rachelle Disbennett-Lee, PhD

Hey, I think that could be a good quote the other way around, too..... SO, "If it is worth taking a risk, it is worth doing"

I always enjoy positive quotes, and I have MANY. I have some favorites of my own. Aside from Yoda's "Do or do not, there is no try" when it comes to fear and anxiety, my favorite quote is from Frank Herbert's series "Dune"

" I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

I like both of those. The second one is deep. Took some great thought. It is a great way to think!

"Do or don't, there is no try"..lol.. That's a great way to "try" to think! Kind of a way to think like Nike's "Just Do It"........
