Writer's Workshop - Positive Thoughts

I've skipped the Writer's Workshop for a couple of weeks because I've just couldn't get the time. Even though it's a bit late, here is my entry for this week. They asked for our Positive Affirmations and you know me, I am all about the Positivity!
Even though I don't necessarily "do" affirmations, I do have a lot of quotes that are very special to me that I use as my inspiration in life. Here are some of them:
You can have everything in life you want, if you'll just help enough other people get what they want. Zig Ziglar
Be yourself - everyone else is taken. Unknown
I am my mother's child and that is better than being the child of anyone else in the world. Maya Angelou
God can dream a bigger dream for you than you could ever imagine. Oprah
We immediately become more effective when we decide to change ourselves rather than asking things to change for us. Stephen Covey
Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain - and most fools do. Dale Carnegie - (Adrian's take on this. Don't just whine, get busy and fix it! I may whine and complain with the best of them, but then I start looking for solutions.)
The human brain is unique in that it is the only container of which it can be said that the more you put into it, the more it will hold. Glenn Doman
You are what you think about. Earl Nightingale
Action is the foundational key to all success. Tony Robbins
Never try to teach a pig to sing, it wastes your time and annoys the pig. Unknown
You receive what you "thank" about. The Secret
For every moment you are angry, you lose 60 seconds of happiness. Unknown
People are where they are because that is exactly where they really want to be - whether they will admit that or not. Earl Nightingale
Actions that are recognized and rewarded will be repeated. Unknown
I think this one is my most favorite. I think it really sums up how I live my life. I'm never that girl who goes along with the crowd. Instead, I always end up going off in my own direction.
Be a voice - not an echo. From a t-shirt I saw at Disneyland

I have seen Zig Ziglar at a conference in Atlanta. That man is so smart. I remember thinking - I wish he had been my father (sorry dad). The things he could have taught me. I like your quotes. I have this one taped on my bedroom wall above my desk, "If you live now like most people won't, then you can live later like most people can't". Try that one out for awhile.
