There are a lot of great inspirational quotes on positive thinking on a vast amount of subjects, from every dayt situation to business, science, psycholoty and anything else. An important point is to recognize is that Dr Norman Vincent Peale was the first to promote this concept of pre date positive thinking about 60 years ago.
There is a website that offers up to 120 topics of quotes, othere offer targeted categories. YOu can download them for free, those website will often try to sell you other products or programs. You can find also a lot of books on quotes in your local library.
The fact that many quotes from famous people were created before the concept was formaly defined as positive thinking, shows that there was already a method of self improvement. This makes understand that highly successful people, owe part of their success to having a positive mind and self talk as a characteristic of life. People like Einstein, Winston churchill, Oprah Winfrey, Mahatma Gandhi and Benjamin Franklin are just a few that have many wise phrases that are quoted before positive thinking got popular.
Can we assume that success just comes to positive thinkers? Or is it just an attribute that helps success when its applied to certain situations by people who have not positive attitudes? We know that there are situations in life were negative thinking is required as a protection measure. For example Engineers design systems to avoid worst case scenarios and assure reliability and function in unregular conditions. Making sure that everything will work fine even in the worst conditions is a very wise decision.
We know that very famous people used positive thinking quotes even before the priciples were defined or spoken. Einsten said "You have to learn the rules of the game. And you have to play better that anyone else"
Winston Churchill, while Prime Minister of England said: " A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty", Gandhi said: " A man is but the product of his thoughts, what he thinks, he becomes". This is clear evidence that positive thinking was used long before we define it, for successful people.
