 The power of choice and free will is a blessing but can become a curse if misused. Your future is shaped by your choices. Every day that you wake up you are either making a choice for or against your future. But, not just your future, those who look up to you. Those who are under your care. Those who are following in your footsteps. Let your choices be your power, not your punishment. Yes, you are imperfect and you will make mistakes, but remember that there are consequences for your actions, and they not only affect you but others, directly and indirectly.  Think before you do! Whatever your choices are you'll have to live with them and others may face the repercussions too. Make good choices! In this list, you'll find: powerful wisdom quotes, short wisdom quotes about life, deep words of wisdom, wise sayings about life lessons, and words of wisdom about life. 1. “You cannot control the behavior of others, but you can always choose how you respond to it.” ―  Roy T.

Many like to talk about the success of famous people, but only a few are interested in what it took for them to get there. How often have we stopped to think about the process that leads up to their success? I'd like to talk about the waiting period. You won't hear many people talking about this. Who likes to wait? Who wants to wait for years? We get flustered when we are in traffic for hours, in long queues at the hospital, supermarket, theatre, etc. We just can't be bothered by the long wait. These scenarios are no different from pursuing our dreams. Many of us can't be bothered by the wait that's why we stop, not to rest, but to quit on our dreams.  Take for example Abraham Lincoln.  Lost his job, in 1832 Defeated for the legislature, 1832 Failed in business, 1833 Elected to the legislature, 1834 His sweetheart (Ann Rutledge) died, in 1835 Had a nervous breakdown, in 1836 Defeated for Speaker, 1838 Defeated for nomination for Congress, 1843 Elected to Congress, 1

  It's a good thing to have thoughts. That's how we can generate ideas, solve problems, manifest our creative ability, etc. However, not all thoughts are good.  There are some thoughts that you should never allow to become reality because they'll create havoc. You hear about all manner of evil happenings in our world. All these things were thoughts before they became reality.   For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, slanders, Matthew 15:19.  Whatever energy you send off to the universe that's the same energy that it will give back to you. Don't expect to see good things happening in your life; if you're always emitting negative energy.  In this list, you'll find 85 quotes that include: the power of negative thinking quotes, negative quotes on life, negativity quotes and sayings, quotes about negative people, no time for negativity quotes, How do you handle negativity quotes, how do you stop negative
