“Dealing with Discouragement!”

 

 

         QUOTES   ABOUT   DISCOURAGEMENT

 Seeds of discouragement will not grow in the thankful heart. – Anonymous

Disappointments will come and go, but discouragement is a choice that you make. – Dr. Charles Stanley

Do not be discouraged if your plans do not succeed the first time. No one learns to walk by taking only one step. – Catherine Pulsifer

Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success. – Dale Carnegie

Nearly every man who develops an idea works it up to the point where it looks impossible, and then he gets discouraged. That’s not the place to become discouraged. – Thomas Edison

 

Discouragement is dissatisfaction with the past, distaste for the present, and distrust of the future. It is ingratitude for the blessings of yesterday, indifference to the opportunities of today, and insecurity regarding strength for tomorrow. It is unawareness of the presence of beauty, unconcern for the needs of our fellowman, and unbelief in the promises of old. It is impatience with time, immaturity of thought, and impoliteness to God. – William Ward.

Plough Ahead

Pay as little attention to discouragement as possible. Plough ahead as a steamer does, rough or smooth, rain or shine. To carry your cargo and make port is the point.

Maltbie Babcock, in Bits and Pieces, June, 1990, p. 12
