If you continue to concentrate so deeply on the negative factors you are unable to acknowledge all the positive results.

About This Quote

So often, if you get a bad grade or a bad review or a bad comment, you immediately lose faith in yourself. You let that little voice in your head tell you that you are no good, and that is what keeps you from reaching your full potential. Instead of focusing on the negative, focus on the positive. Instead of looking at the areas where you have been unsuccessful, look at the areas where you have achieved success. Keep your eyes fixed on the positives to build confidence and belief in yourself.
