Hello Friends,
Today's quote comes from Henry Ford. He is credited with coming up with the idea of an assembly line to make production of his cars more efficient. This model of an assembly line revolutionized the way business was done in the U.S. He is someone who paid great attention to detail. He didn't have any accountants and was never audited while he ran the company. Ford didn't have any formal business education but he had one thing that drove him to success...The BELIEF that could do it.
"Whether you think you can or can't, either way, you are right."
This quote is so true on such a simple level. If you have the belief that you can achieve a particular goal, you are going to do everything in your power to reach that goal. Because this is all your thinking about you will find that things start to fall into place because you are completely focused. You have a good feeling about what you're doing. Rather than it being hard work, it becomes a pleasure working toward the goal.
If you think you can't, you won't. You probably won't even try. Even if you do try, nothing will ever come from such lame efforts. It is impossible to put a 100% effort in to something you don't believe in. The sad thing is that a lot of us don't believe in ourselves. Therefor we don't put 100% in to improving ourselves. We look at a task and say "I can't". Even if it will improve our situation it is always easier to do nothing than to work on that task.
If we can get to a place where we believe ourselves, our abilities, our potential, the sky's the limit. The fact of the matter is, we have the ability to do whatever we want. It all starts with an idea. So we must always be thinking. Feeding our mind through reading, writing, and meditation. These are areas where you can gain new thoughts and put them into action.
Believe in yourself. Know that you have the ability to achieve anything. And like Nike says, "Just do it."
Thanks for listening.
You're Always Right

even if nothing bad happens in someones day, negative thinking can be the downfall for that entire day. you would be surprised how far a person could fall just because they don't think "yes i can." three little words that could make or break a lifestyle depending on what end of the spectrum you are looking from. that right there is something that can only be figured out from within, and it is something that will take time.
Wow...I hope people really take time to read this today. I know it is something that I needed to read and others can benefit from. It is so easy to walk into a sitution and have negative outlook on it before even attempting it. I think we waste so much time living in fear and we talk ourselves out of really being positive and going after what we want to achieve. It's time that I start thinking I can...and then I will!!
