Great Quotes From Great People On Self Improvement
|
Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. Write down all the things you would no longer accept in your life, all the things you would no longer tolerate, and all the things that you aspire to become. Go ahead and take the actions and steps necessary to make your goal of self-improvement in some area of your life into a reality. A good example of this is how athletes will compare their current performance to their own previous performances with self-improvement being the number one goal. The great philosopher Heraclitus says “the only permanent thing in this world is change". Everything is in constant flux. But human nature resists this change because change is uncomfortable, stressful and painful. We hate change so much and yet it is change that has brought in so much progress for us. Over the years my teacher has been teaching about a simple concept called 'The Ant Philosophy' to students. I think everybody should study ants. They have an amazing self improvement philosophy and here it is: Ants never quit. When they're headed somewhere and you try to stop them; they'll look for another way. They'll climb over, they'll climb under, and they'll climb around. They keep on looking for another way. Likewise never quit moving in the direction of your goal but do keep changing the ways to get where you want to go. Take a look at these great quotes from great people on self improvement: C.R. Lawton “Unless you try to do something beyond what you have mastered, you will never grow." Cindy Wagner “I'm going to get through this; I'm going to be fine. The power to do it is all in my mind." Sean Gregory Derrick “No one knows everything, but everyone can learn something." Unknown Author “The biggest room in the world is the room for improvement." Les Brown “You cannot expect to achieve new goals or move beyond your present circumstances unless you change." Unknown Author “The best contribution one can make to humanity is to improve oneself." Socrates “Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings so that you shall come easily by what others have labored hard for." These people are the pillars of our society and these quotes are stressing on self improvement for the betterment of society and humanity. If we want to improve we need to learn from our mistakes, from our experience, from other people, from our failures and successes and not to forget from our leaders. Our success is the result of our ability to learn and grow in all situations. About The Author: Rodney Grubbs has been an amazing mentor over the past years.
