HOW TO START THINKING BIGGER  (AND WHY TO DO IT)  Some quotes to get you inspired to think bigger:  “Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution.” “Action cures fear.” ― David J. Schwartz, “Look at things not as they are, but as they can be. Visualization adds value to everything. A big thinker always visualizes what can be done in the future. He isn't stuck with the present” ― David J. Schwartz, “Look at things as they can be, not as they are.” ― David J. Schwartz, “The point is this: Big thinkers are specialists in creating positive, forward-looking, optimistic pictures in their own minds and in the minds of others. To think big, we must use words and phrases that produce big, positive mental images.” ― David J. Schwartz, The Magic of Thinking Big * Starting to think bigger comes from deciding to.  * Dare to live as thing can be - with faith and optimism  * Decide that you want to be a person of significance, not simply success. Significance comes from thinking bigger than oneself. Book Recommendations: The Magic of Thinking Big, by David J.
