Don't be discouraged

Problems are only opportunities with thorns on them.

The difficulties of life are intended to make us better, not bitter.

"When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

"It doesn't matter how many say it cannot be done or how many people have tried it before; it's important to realize that whatever you're doing, it's your first attempt at it." - Wally Amos

We must have long range goals to keep us from being discouraged by short range setbacks.

Don't be discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.

"It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves." - Edmund Hillary

"You need to be aware of what others are doing, applaud their efforts, acknowledge their successes, and encourage them in their pursuits. When we all help one another, everybody wins." - Jim Stovall

"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed." - Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)

You have some great topics here. This one (Don't be discouraged) is one we can all use some help with from time to time. I love the layout of your blog.

Hi Genevieve,

This world will be a better one if everybody is willing to compliments, encouragement, or uplift anybody we come across everyday. I am really happy to know my blog is able to do so.

Thank you.
Best wishes.
