“In the last few decades entire new categories of waste have come to plague and menace the American scene. Pollution is growing at a rapid rate. Pollution destroys beauty and menaces health. It cuts down on efficiency, reduces property values and raises taxes. Almost all these wastes and pollutions are the result of activities carried on for the benefit of man. A prime national goal must be an environment that is pleasing to the senses and healthy to live in. Our Government is already doing much in this field. We have made significant progress. But more must be done.” MenMadeDoneGovernmentLastsValuesGoalResultsBeautyEnvironmentCuttingGrowingProgressFieldsHealthySceneActivityTaxesWasteBenefitsRaisesPropertyRateDecadesSensesSignificantPrimeCategoriesPollutionEfficiencyPlagueRapidsMenacePollution Control Author:Lyndon B.

“A teacher who can show good, or indeed astounding results while he is teaching, is still not on that account a good teacher, for it may be that, while his pupils are under his immediate influence, he raises them to a level which is not natural to them, without developing their own capacities for work at this level, so that they immediately decline again once the teacher leaves the schoolroom.” MayStillsShowsNaturalLevelsResultsTeacherInfluenceTeachingCapacityAccountsRaisesDevelopingDeclinePupilsGood Teacher Author:Ludwig Wittgenstein
“If you raise your standards but don't really believe you can meet them, you've already sabotaged yourself. You won't even try; you'll be lacking the sense of certainty that allows you to tap the deepest capacity that's within you... Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands, telling us how things are, what's possible and impossible and what we can and can not do. They shape every action, every thought and every feeling that we experience. As a result, changing our belief systems is central to making any real and lasting change in our lives.” IfsTryingBelieveRealFeelingsActionBeliefResultsOur LivesImpossibleShapesStandardsCapacityRaisesSettingCommandCertaintyLastingWithin YouLackingCan NotChanging Your LifeBelief SystemsBelieve You CanSabotageHigh StandardsPossible And ImpossibleLimiting BeliefsLasting ChangeRaise Your Standards Author:Tony Robbins
“The move from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking, from zero-sum competition to one-hundred-sum collaboration, is not just a “nice” or “moral” idea. In the twenty-first century, it's plain good sense. Scarcity says, “I'm going to keep all my ideas to myself and sell more than anyone else.” Abundance says, “By mentoring, coaching, and sharing all our best ideas, we're going to create a powerful tide that raises all our ships-and we'll all sell more as a result".” ThinkingFirstsIdeasMovingResultsPowerfulMoralNiceCenturyHundredTwentiesRaisesSellsCompetitionShipsCoachingAbundanceZeroCollaborationTidesGood SenseScarcityMentoring Author:Daniel Burrus
“The attempt to be an ideal parent, that is, to behave correctly toward the child, to raise her correctly, not to give to little ortoo much, is in essence an attempt to be the ideal child--well behaved and dutiful--of one's own parents. But as a result of these efforts the needs of the child go unnoticed. I cannot listen to my child with empathy if I am inwardly preoccupied with being a good mother; I cannot be open to what she is telling me.” IfsNeedsGivingWellsChildrenLittlesMotherParentResultsEffortEmpathyIdealsEssenceRaisesMy ChildrenBehaveUnnoticedGood MotherBeing A Good Mother Author:Alice Miller
“By helping to raise man above the level of bestial vegetation, faith contributes in reality to the securing and safeguarding of his existence. Take away from present-day mankind its education-based, religious-dogmatic principles- or, practically speaking, ethical-moral principles- by abolishing this religious education, but without replacing it by an equivalent, and the result will be a grave shock to the foundations of their existence.” MenHelpingRealityReligiousLevelsResultsExistenceMoralPrinciplesMankindRaisesFoundationGravesShockEthicalPresent DayDogmaticMoral PrinciplesVegetationSafeguardingReligious Education Book:Mein Kampf Source: Mein Kampf
