I carry a copy of the little engine that could in my back pack.
I think I can, I think I can
Another I like
Just keep swimming , swimming
What are yours?
"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
"Nobody can hurt me without my permission"
"Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth"
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win"
"Live as if you were to die to tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever"

"Painful as it maybe, a significant emotional event can be the catalyst for choosing a direction that serves us-and those around us- more effectively. Look for the learning."
Louisa May Alcott
Don1984, I love Suart Smalley in the mirror with his daily affirmations. Brilliant.
There are so many literary references to looking in the mirror and giving a pep-talk to your reflection. "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" Song: "I Believe In You."
And there was a self-improvement book by Napoleon Hill where one of the exercises was to talk to yourself in the mirror each day.
