TruthOrator Daily Mind Refreshment And Food For Thought
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength. --Marcus Aurelius
What we call our destiny is truly our character and that character can be altered. The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny. One is not in bondage to the past, which has shaped our feelings, to race, inheritance, background. All this can be altered if we have the courage to examine how it formed us. We can alter the chemistry provided we have the courage to dissect the elements. --Anaïs Nin
Any woman who is sure of her own wits, is a match, at any time, for a man who is not sure of his own temper. --Wilkie Collins
Never respond to an angry person with a fiery comeback, even if he deserves it...Don't allow his anger to become your anger. --Bohdi Sanders
If you truly want to be respected by people you love, you must prove to them that you can survive without them. --Michael Bassey Johnson
Self-control is the chief element in self-respect, and self-respect is the chief element in courage. --Thucydides
Everybody in the world is seeking happiness—and there is one sure way to find it. That is by controlling your thoughts. Happiness doesn't depend on outward conditions. It depends on inner conditions. --Dale Carnegie
Educate your children to self-control, to the habit of holding passion and prejudice and evil tendencies subject to an upright and reasoning will, and you have done much to abolish misery from their future and crimes from society. --Benjamin Franklin
Swearing doesn’t make your argument valid; it just tells the other person you have lost your class and control. --Shannon L. Alde
He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still. --Lao Tzu
Here’s one of my favorite statements: We are never going to enjoy stability, we are never going to enjoy spiritual maturity until we learn how to do what’s right when it feels wrong, and every time you do what’s right by a decision of your will using discipline and self control to go beyond how you feel, the more painful it is in your flesh, the more you’re growing spiritually at that particular moment. --Joyce Meyer
Very often in everyday life one sees that by losing one's temper with someone who has already lost his, one does not gain anything but only sets out upon the path of stupidity. He who has enough self-control to stand firm at the moment when the other person is in a temper, wins in the end. It is not he who has spoken a hundred words aloud who has won; it is he who has perhaps spoken only one word. --Hazrat Inayat Khan
I tell you what when I see chocolate chip cookies I can’t just eat one. I’ve got to eat a dozen. I don’t have any self control. Well, come on! You’re just talking yourself right into the pit! You do have self control, and you need to start looking at those cookies and saying, “If I want you I’ll eat you, and if I don’t I won’t!” Come on! Talk to that plateful of food! I am born again and baptized in the Holy Ghost! I have the power of the universe on the inside of me, and if I do not want to eat you I will not eat you! I mean how do you expect to defeat the devil if you can’t even defeat a chocolate chip cookie!?!? --Joyce Meyer
Showing a lack of self-control is in the same vein granting authority to others: 'Perhaps I need someone else to control me. --Criss Jami
