Thoughts frame your portrait, action paints it.

About This Quote

Thoughts frame your portrait, action paints it. When you think about yourself, you are essentially painting a picture of yourself in your mind. If you see yourself as someone who is irresponsible, lazy, and inconsiderate, then you will act like those things. If you think about yourself as someone who is friendly and helpful, then you will behave accordingly. Your thoughts will shape your actions.
