“Distance changes utterly when you take the world on foot. A mile becomes a long way, two miles literally considerable, ten miles whopping, fifty miles at the very limits of conception.

“Take the happiest man, the one most envied by the world, and in nine cases out of ten his inmost consciousness is one of failure.

“The secret is contained in a three-part formula I learned in the gym: self confidence, a positive mental attitude, and honest hard work. Many people are aware of these principles, but very few can put them into practice. Every day I hear someone say, 'I'm to fat. I need to lose twenty-five pounds, but I can't. I never seem to improve.' I'd hate myself if I had that kind of attitude, if I were that weak. I can lose ten to forty pounds rapidly, easily, painlessly, by simply setting my mind to it.” PeopleIfsNeedsMindKindI CanSelfHardSeemsHateThreeLosesSecretAttitudePrinciplesPracticeFiveHonestHard WorkTenWeakTwentiesSelf ConfidenceSettingFatsSettingsFortyPoundsGymFormulasTwenty FiveMental AttitudePositive Mental AttitudeHate Myself Book:Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder Source: Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder
“You see everything depends upon the psychological headquarters from which we live. 'Where am I living from?' Ask yourself that question. If you don't like your headquarters, you can move any time you like. Break away. Don't tell anyone about it. Others will either smile tolerantly or mouth sanctimonious babble. Make your escape plans in secret. Never mind if you lose certain friends, you will find others who also have dared. They will be ten-thousand times more valuable to you.” IfsMindMovingCertainAsksLosesSecretBreakPlansLike YouDependsThousandTenMouthsValuablePsychologicalHer SmileHeadquartersSanctimonious Author:Vernon Howard
