Positive Thinker Steve Pavlina

Positive Thinker Steve Pavlina

This week’s quotes come from the nationally known inspirational speaker and master of psychology  Steve Pavlina (April 14th, 1971 –), has influenced the direction of the power of thought for years.  His blog, books, and seminars have pushed the envelope in exploring and redefining what it means to think, and to think positively.  Steve is the voice of positive thinking for the 21st century onlineHe has written more than 1000 articles and recorded many audio programs on a broad range of self-help topics, including productivity, relationships, and spirituality.  His website, www.stevepavlina.com , ranks as one of the most successful (and influential) in the world.  And he did it all on his own.

It all started for Steve at the age of 19 after spending a night in jail for petty theft, and being expelled from school.  He knew that’s not life he wanted, and he decided then to make changes.  While developing his own sense of positive-thinking, he earned two college degrees in three semesters, in computer science and mathematics.

Since his self-improvement journey began, he sought to share with others all the things he’s learned.  Starting his own Blog, StevePavlina.com, he quickly shared his profound insight in regularly updated posts and articles.  It’s a Blog for those who think.  You won’t just find simple platitudes here.  You’ll find them explored and expounded upon with insight and intelligence.

Steve put all his energy into his site, and it quickly gained popularity and support.  He now brings in 6-figures a month, from his site aloneTalk about trafficAnd it just goes to show you… if you combine proven-marketing strategy with a deep passion, you can find success.  And Steve did.

So check his site out, you won’t be let down.  He truly is one of the best positive-thinkers in the world today.

Now for some Steve Pavlina quotes:

Persistence of action comes from persistence of vision.

So act boldly, as if it’s impossible to fail. If you keep adding fuel to your desire, you will reach the point of knowing that you’ll never quit, and ultimate success will be nothing more than a matter of time.

Courage is the dividing line between weakness and strength of character.

Courage is the gateway in the sense that you must first learn to face down your fears, even as they still appear real to you.

One of my core beliefs is that belief itself is a choice that can be made of our own free will.

The more disciplined you become, the easier life gets.

Willpower is a concentration of force. You gather up all your energy and make a massive thrust forward.

Our beliefs act as lenses. These lenses can help us see things we can’t otherwise see, but they can also block us from seeing parts of reality.

Passion and purpose go hand in hand. When you discover your purpose, you will normally find it’s something you’re tremendously passionate about.

By courage I mean the ability to face down those imaginary fears and reclaim the far more powerful life that you’ve denied yourself.

True courage is more a matter of intellect than of feeling.

Courageous people are still afraid, but they don’t let the fear paralyze them.

Some good quotes that really make you thinkStevePavlina.com is definitely worth a visit.  It’s easy to navigate around, and he touches on so many topics you’ll be sure to find something helpful and useful.

Hey everyone,

Here is my next installment for the weekly Positive Thinking quotes.   Often in life we can get a little down and sometimes even a simple quote can inspire us to push through to the next day.  So while this might not be a life changing Blog post, it may give you a smile, or a burst of momentum on a slow day.

This week’s quotes come from Minister Robert Schuller. You may have heard of Robert Schuller (b. Sept 16th, 1926) before, internationally renowned minister of the Crystal Cathedral, in California.  Mentored by Norman Vincent Peale (see our blog post on Peale), Robert is famous for his Hour of Power television show, and for speaking around the world on Faith and Positive Thinking.  His famous writings/speakings include Move Ahead With Possibility Thinking and You Can Be The Person You Want To Be.

Robert Schuller is considered by some to be an expert in motivational speaking and positive thinking.  He reminds us there is more to life than what we think, and that we should live exciting lives, full of possibilities and positivity.

Now for some Robert Schuller quotes:

If you listen to your fears, you will die never knowing what a great person you might have been.
Robert H. Schuller

It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow.

Robert H. Schuller

It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.
Robert H. Schuller

I’d rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.
Robert H. Schuller

If there exists no possibility of failure, then victory is meaningless.
Robert H. Schuller

Failure doesn’t mean you are a failure it just means you haven’t succeeded yet.
Robert H. Schuller

Again and again, the impossible problem is solved when we see that the problem is only a tough decision waiting to be made.
Robert H. Schuller

Always look at what you have left. Never look at what you have lost.

Robert H. Schuller

Goals are not only absolutely necessary to motivate us. They are essential to really keep us alive.
Robert H. Schuller

Goals must never be from your ego, but problems that cry for a solution.
Robert H. Schuller

High achievers spot rich opportunities swiftly, make big decisions quickly and move into action immediately. Follow these principles and you can make your dreams come true.
Robert H. Schuller

These Robert Schuller quotes are phenomenal!  They really are.  Each one is powerful and can create change in our lives.  You should seriously write down a half dozen of them that really spoke to you or impressed you, and post them places you will read them each day. Places like- on your computer, bulletin board, office desk, refrigerator, bathroom mirror, even a piece of paper to put in your wallet or your purse.

Even a tiny little quote can create an avalanche of accomplishment.

To success and positive thoughts, a great weekend and week,

Here is my next installment for the weekly Positive Thinking quotes.   Often in life we can get a little down and sometimes even a simple quote can inspire us to push through to the next day.  So while this might not be a life changing Blog post, it may give you a smile, or a burst of momentum on a slow day.

Today’s quotes are by Norman Vincent Peale. More on him below!


Quotes for the weekNorman Vincent Peale: (a great thinker, writer, minister, and motivator.)


“Change your thoughts and you change your world.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

“Do not be awe struck by other people and try to copy them. Nobody can be you as efficiently as you can.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

“Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture…Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

“Think enthusiastically about everything; but especially about your job. If you do, you’ll put a touch of glory in your life. If you love your job with enthusiasm, you’ll shake it to pieces. You’ll love it into greatness.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

“Throw your heart over the fence and the rest will follow.”

- Norman Vincent Peale

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale (May 31, 1898 – December 24, 1993) was a Protestant preacher and author (most notably of The Power of Positive Thinking) and a progenitor of the theory of “positive thinking”. 

He spoke about the value of thinking and feeling positive versus thinking and feeling negative.  His teachings centered on being positive, having faith, and seeking out purpose in life.  He combined mindset/law of attraction type positivity with Faith in God.   Whether you believe in God or not, his landmark book, The Power of Positive Thinking is a must read!  Over 7 million people bought this book over the years.  It was one of the few books that changed my life.  It can be a good influence in yours as well.

To a positive week and a great weekend!
