Do Not Defeat Yourself

“Do not defeat yourself by holding spiteful or jealous thoughts.“- Norman Vincent Peale

Your life is more important than jealous thoughts. Your life is more powerful than hateful thoughts. Do not destroy your life by living with jealous or hateful thoughts. Instead, you can replace them with love thoughts. Because love never fails! If you believe in the power of love, love will always follow you. If you sow love, that is what you will get. If you sow happiness, that is what you will get. If you put people first, people will put you first. Life is too short to waste. Do not defeat yourself.

Never Compare Your Achievements With Other People

“Never compare yourself or your achievements with others, but make your comparison only with yourself.”- Norman Vincent Peale

You are a painter. Paint your own life. If you want a better future for yourself, paint it now. Comparing yourself to other people is like painting a different life. The way you see yourself is more important than anything else in your life. Don’t paint yourself with a negative brush. No matter what, take time to celebrate your life. If you want to live a great life, you must paint your own image. Because it is important.
