Here are some inspiring quotes from the book “Kiss the Frog”, chapter “Look for the Beauty in Frogs”.

• Difficulties comes not to obstruct but to instruct.
• Nothing contain any emotion, positive or negative, except for the emotion you put into it by way you think about it.
• By revising your interpretation of the unhappy experience you has as a child, you can turn them from bad to good, from depressing to elevating. “It’s never too late to have a happy childhood”. – Wayne Dyer
• “Every problem or difficulty you face contains the seed of an equal or greater advantage or benefit” – Napoleon Hill
• One of the most powerful ways to turn negatives into positives, to turn frogs into princes, is to seek the valuable lesson in every problem or difficulty you encounter. “Great souls learn great lessons from small problems.” – Emmet Fox
• One of the fastest way to switch your mind from negative to positive, whenever something goes wrong is to change your vocabulary. For example, instead of the word “problem” use the word “situation”.
• Fortunately, as many as 99 percent of things that you worry about never happen. In fact, the situations that you never thought to worry about are what cause most of your unhappiness.
• As soon as you decide to take action to resolve a difficulty or to get out of bad situation, your stress disappears. The inaction caused by indecisiveness is what generates most of the stress about the situation.
• Look upon change as a blessing containing ideas, insights, advantages that you can use to create even more wonderful life in future.
• Resistance of any kind is a major source of stress, negativity and even depression. The opposite of resistance is acceptance. It is important for you to accept that change has taken place in your life and then move on.
• The inability to get over a bad situation is a major block that’s hold people back, often for many years. One of the marks of maturity is to accept that you are not perfect, that you made mistakes.
• One of the great secrets of happiness is to eliminate the words “only if” from your vocabulary.
• Refuse to wallow in regret or remorse about changes that have happened that you cannot control.
• Instead of throwing good money after bad, investing more time and emotion in a bad relationship or spending more time on something that obviously has no chance of success, you must accept that what you have invested up to now is a sunk cost and resolve to let it go. When you develop the strength of character to say “I was wrong. I made a mistake. I’ve changed my mind”, you will find it much easier to let go of unfortunate events that have occurred and simply accept them as a normal and natural part of your personal growth and development.

Kiss that frog is an amazing book, worth you time investment.
