Cartoon – Real Winners!
“The real winners in life are the people who look at every situation with an expectation that they can make it work or make it better.” Barbara Pletcher

Hey! What if you put round wheels on it?

Visualize your way to Success!
Here’s a cartoon I did for a client for a calendar on Football/Soccer Motivation…
Visualise your way to success!
Here’s a few quotes that I found while researching….
“Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build.” – Robert Collier
“People who soar are those who refuse to sit back, sigh and wish things would change. They neither complain of their lot nor passively dream of some distant ship coming in. Rather, they visualize in their minds that they are not quitters; they will not allow life’s circumstances to push them down and hold them under.” (Not sure who wrote this one!)
Or this one…“Losers visualize the penalties of failure. Winners visualize the rewards of success.”
“The entrepreneur is essentially a visualizer and an actualizer… He can visualize something, and when he visualizes it he sees exactly how to make it happen.” – Robert L. Schwartz
Doug DissOut dug this cartoon out of the archives.
I cam across this quote today and found I had illustrated it years ago…
When one door closes another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the ones which open for us. – Alexander Graham Bell
As one door slams in your face...
Hi,
I was just looking through my filing cabinets(I’ve got three full of cartoons I’ve done over the last 25 years – I hardly ever go into them nowadays because of the computer!) for something to put on here.
I can across this cartoon I did for my local Chamber Of Commerce.
The brief was to illustrate ‘You can climb higher with help and support of others’
It must be over 20 years since I did this and probably one of my first ever commissions for motivational cartoons! My style has changed quite a bit too!
Women Working Together!
Here’s a few ‘Working Together’ quotes…
“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” Henry Ford
“The best teamwork comes from men and women who are working independently toward one goal in unison.” James Cash Penney
“Together we aspire, together we achieve.”- found on trinidad’s coat of arms
“Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.” – Andrew Carnegie: Quotes on Teamwork
I’ll see what else I can find in that cabinet!
Here are some of my ‘action’ quotes – hope you like them and the cartoon!?
Well done is better than well said. – Benjamin Franklin
The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing – Albert Einstein
Action = Success
We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration seldom generates action. – Frank Tibolt
An idea not coupled with action will never get any bigger than the brain cell it occupied. – Arnold Glasow
Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold – but so does a hard-boiled egg. – Author Unknown
It’s just dawned on me this morning that I’m being totally negative! I’ve had sore knees for some months now – I don’t know if this is just wear and tear after all these years of playing football/soccer and squash.(I’m 55 in July and I’m trying to keep active as long as possible!)
I’ve only just realized that when I play a game I’m moaning about my injuries and telling friends I’m ‘on my way out’ ‘hanging my boots up’ etc. What am I doing? I’m being so negative! Last year I said I was taking up golf so as not to put any more strain on my knees and forget the footy and squash. And although I really got into the game I have drifted back to my favourite sports. But the reason for recent bad games/results is down to my negative thinking. I’m slipping down the squash leagues, players you I had previously thrashed are now beating me. I’m feeling really sorry for myself and looking for attention. Well, from today I’m stopping this decline! I’ll keep you informed.
In the meantime here’s a cartoon I drew some time ago that helps illustrate the above….
Believe You Can and you can!
I read this from Joe Vitale’s ezine this morning and it stopped me dead in my tracks and force me to pull myself together…
If you want to attract money, for example, see
yourself already wealthy, feel the joy of helping
yourself and others with the money, and repeat
this in your mind as much as its fun to do so.
By doing this you will “brand” your mind with the
new you. Once it takes hold (which can be very
fast), and you act on your ideas, you will begin
to attract money.
The lesson here is this: to change yourself you
need to use imagery, emotion, and repetition. Do
all three and virtually anything is possible.
