The Naysayer Sees The Clouds on a Sunny Day


The Naysayer Sees The Clouds on a Sunny Day
“No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the stars, or sailed
to an uncharted land, or opened a new haven to
the human spirit.”
Helen Keller 1880 – 1968, American Author,
Political Activist, Lecturer,

As I see it . . . . . . .

The naysayer sees the clouds on a sunny day

The naysayer sees the clouds on a sunny day . . . . and misses the brightness that the sun offers.

The naysayer sees the hard work . . . . and misses the opportunity.

The naysayer complaints . . . . and never sees the possibilities.

The naysayer looks for the negatives in people . . . . and misses the opportunity to create a production relationship with the person.

The naysayer looks at a condition and expects the worst . . . . and seems to find themselves in that condition.

The naysayer lives in a world of a self-fulfilling prophecy . . . . and will find themselves living in a world that’s reflected in their thinking.

The naysayer sees the clouds on a sunny day . . . . When you look at the world through a positive prism you will see the sun in your day.

Self Pity is Our Enemy

Motivational Power Quote

Self Pity is Our Enemy
“Self pity is our worst enemy,
and if we yield to it,
we can never do
anything good in the world.”
Helen Keller, blind and deaf educator


As I see it. . . . . . . .


Self pity is our enemy


Self pity becomes a trap of the mind that moves us into the dark world of negative thinking, negative action and negative results.


If we yield to self pity we become involved in a endless downward spiral. This spiral can throw our lives into a tailspin where things get out of control and make it seem as if there is no way out.


When we become involved in challenging situations never yield to self pity.


We have to resist self pity with all of our strength we maintain positive thinking about the condition and stay focused on solutions, not self pity.


Self pity is our enemy, positive thinking and focused efforts are our friend.

Our Vision Will Determine What We See

Motivational Power Quote

Our Vision Will Determine What We See
“It is a terrible thing to see
and yet have no vision.”
Helen Keller


As I see it. . . . . . . .


Our vision will determine what we see


Determining what your goals are in life creates a vision for your life’s journey. Our consistent thoughts will bring clarity to our vision.


As we clarify our vision we determine what we see.

Once we can see our vision with clarity we open the doors to achieving our goals and prosperity.


Our vision will determine what we see and the direction that our life’s journey will take.

A Life Of Purpose

Motivational Power Quote


A Life Of Purpose

“Many people have a wrong idea of
what constitutes true happiness.
It is not attained through self-gratification
but though fidelity to a worthy purpose.”
Helen Keller, author and lecturer


As I see it. . . . . . . .


A life of purpose


A person that leads a life of purpose has a direction for their life and a target to aim for. Their direction gives their life meaning and a reason for them to continue to push forward.


As they achieve their objective they will find fulfillment and happiness in the success journey.

Never Lose the Sense of Wonderment

Motivational Power Quote

Never Lose the Sense of Wonderment

one should instead count one’s interests.

I am glad I still have a vivid
