What you can concieve and believe, you can achieve. - Henry Ford (I think)
Men are only as happy as they make up their minds to be. - Abraham Lincoln
You'll see it when you believe it. - Wayne Dyer
If you're gonna be stupid, you gotta be tough. - Ed Dalgety
Imagination is more important than intelligence. - Albert Einstein
I have no plans on dying; in fact, it will be the last thing I do. - Milton Erickson
All stress results from believing your unquestioned thoughts. - Byron Katie

"Don't limit your challenges, challenge your limits"

I like that one, I'm going to use it!

While searching the entire www (feels like it anyway...) I came across this one (which I'm not going to use), but made me laugh a lot:

"The only one who got everything done by Friday, was Robinson Crusoe."

And Homer Simpson yesterday, after being accused of lying by Marge: "It takes two to lie! One to lie and one to listen... " Cheesy

One from the list of NLP presuppositions, but an ex-manager of mine used to pin it up whereever he worked (long before I know about NLP)...

If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you already have.

I'm only a pencil in the hand of God

Mother Teresa

Modified NLP PRE-SUPPOSITION- The map and the territory are the same thing- if you look at the territory- then it is in essence still only a map- and if you are looking at a map- then you have to be within a territory- even if you make a series of abstraction- either into the higher levels or the Sub- levels- neurologically they are the same- try leaving the map or the territory in a chair.. they are both their as one and the same.

Hey Michelle,

thanks!

The website I needed quotes for (when i first posted this) is done, but now I'm busy with the next one for which I can use a lot of quotes, too! So this came just in time!

I love the one about the turtle, and I cracked up about the procastination one! That's me! Smiley

Here is one of my favorites!  Great for dreamers who dream big!

Do not worry if you have built your castles in the air. They are where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.
Henry David Thoreau

A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.

"People are like stained-glass windows.  They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within."
(Elisabeth K?bler-Ross)

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It's our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves: who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of the universe.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightening about shrinking,
so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are born to make manifest the glory of the universe
that is within us. It's not just in some of us: it is in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
And as we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others."
Marianne Williamson
