Neale Donald Walsch Quotes

Change your thoughts and you change your world.

You can get to where you want to be from wherever you are-but you must stop spending so much time noticing and talking about what you do not like about where you are.

Perspective is everything when you are experiencing the challenges of life.

The world is what you think of it. So think of it differently, and your life will change.

Our thoughts about an event can have a dramatic effect on how we go through the event itself. When our expectations are low, it's easy to be pleasantly surprised. When they're not, we're vulnerable to painful disappointment. Because of this, many people spend a good deal of effort trying to avoid developing high hopes about anything.

All we need, really, is a change from a near frigid to a tropical attitude of mind.

The difference between an optimist and a pessimist? An optimist laughs to forget, but a pessimist forgets to laugh.

Man can alter his life by altering his thinking.

Optimism means better than reality; pessimism means worse than reality. I'm a realist.

Only one thing has to change for us to know happiness in our lives: where we focus our attention.

The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.

Life is good when we think it's good. Life is bad when we don't think.

What I had to learn was, that I'm only responsible for my perception of things. The world's not out to get you. That's not the way it works.

If you change the belief first, changing the action is easier.

Your attitude is contagious.

The quality of my life has changed dramatically - not the events - but the way I handle them and my priorities and my sense of drama.

I learned there are ways to approach life. You can never change the events, but you can change the way you approach them.

Attitude determines the altitude of life.

We can always choose to perceive things differently. You can focus on what's wrong in your life, or you can focus on what's right.

There is no sadder thing than a young pessimist, except an old optimist.

Words are powerful; if you change your words, you can change your life.

There's just as much positivity as there is negativity, but for some reason, people focus on the negative things. And I used to be that person, but I'm not that person anymore.

Life is hard. Life is difficult. Life is going to punch you in the gut. But when you change your attitude, you change your behavior. When your behavior changes, so do your results.

In this world, you can choose to be positive, or you can choose to be negative. You can choose to see things through a set of eyes that sees good, or you can choose to see things in life that aren't so good.

Progress is often equal to the difference between mind and mindset.
