“In sport, mental imagery is used primarily to help you get the best out of yourself in training and competition. The developing athletes who make the fastest progress and those who ultimately become their best make extensive use of mental imagery. They use it daily as a means of directing what will happen in training, and as a way of pre-experiencing their best competition performances.” WayMeanHelpingUseHappensUsedSportsProgressTrainingPerformancesCompetitionAthleteDevelopingMotivational SportsImageryMental Imagery Author:Terry Orlick
“So if we look at progress, or evolution, or we look at accomplishment in our life, the key is to be continually moving on, expanding and growing, clarifying, developing and maturing. The opposite would be getting stuck, staying stuck, so there's no maturing, no developing, no accomplishing, no movement.” IfsLooksWould BeActionMovingOur LivesGrowingProgressMovementKeysEvolutionOppositesStuckDevelopingAccomplishmentStayingMatureExpandingClarifying Book:Big Mind, Big Heart: Finding Your Way Source: Big Mind, Big Heart: Finding Your Way
“I have this feeling of wending my way or plundering through a mysterious jungle of possibilities when I am writing. This jungle has not been explored by previous writers. It never will be explored. It's endlessly varying as we progress through the experience of time. These words that occur to me come out of my relation to the language which is developing even as I am using it.” WayWritingFeelingsLanguageProgressPossibilityRelationMysteriousMy WayDevelopingJungle Author:William Stafford
“Individually we can work on ourselves. By working on your own ego and developing truth, control, and an equitable inner dialogue, you individualize the spirit within you through the process of observation. If you work on yourself, the progress you make radiates invisibly to others, helping them and giving them courage, which also improves the global picture. After all-your ego is a part of the world ego, and as you control it, you lessen the overall influence of the world ego while expanding the presence of truth on our planet.” IfsWorldInspirationalGivingHelpingSpiritProcessProgressInfluencePlanetsEgoDialogueObservationDevelopingWithin YouExpandingOur PlanetEquitable Book:More Love: Tender Moments Source: More Love: Tender Moments
“It's not surprising, therefore, that the [Bisy] Backson thinks of progress in terms of fighting and overcoming. One of his little idiosyncrasies, you might say. Of course, real progress involves growing and developing, which involves changing inside, but that's something the inflexible Backson is unwilling to do.” ThinkingLittlesRealMightFightingCoursesTermGrowingProgressOvercomingDevelopingSurprisingUnwillingIdiosyncrasies Author:Benjamin Hoff
“There are those, of course, who claim we must give up freedom in exchange for economic progress. Well, pardon me, but anyone trying to sell you that line is no better than a three-card-trick man. One thing becoming more clear every day is that freedom and progress go hand in hand. Throughout the developing world, people are rejecting socialism because they see that it doesn't empower people, it impoverishes them.” PeopleMenWorldGivingTryingWellsHandsThreeCoursesLinesClearProgressOne ThingEconomicBecomingGiving UpClaimsSellsTricksSocialismCardsDevelopingEmpoweringPardonHand In HandBecoming MoreRejectingPardon MeEconomic ProgressCard Tricks Author:Ronald Reagan

“My point is, as civilization is progressing, Mosaic law came down from the mountain, was handed to civilization, it emerged through the Greek civilization as the Greeks were developing their Age of Reason.

“Had today's technophobic zealots [environmental activists] been in charge in previous centuries, we would have to roll human progress back to the Middle Ages - and beyond, since even fire, the wheel and organic farming pose risks, and none would have passed the "absolute safety" test the zealots demand. Putting them in charge now would mean an end to progress, and perpetual deprivation for inhabitants of developing nations.” HumansMeanEndsAgeTodayNationsFireProgressRiskMiddleCenturyDemandTestsAbsolutesSafetyEnvironmentalDevelopingWheelsActivistPerpetualFarmingMiddle AgesDeprivationHuman ProgressZealotOrganic Farming Author:Paul Driessen
