Psychiatrist Daniel G. Amen has named the limiting thoughts we hear in our
head ANTs – Automatic Negative Thoughts. And just like real ants at a picnic, your ANTS can ruin your experience of life. Dr.Amen recommends that you learn to STOMP the ANTs. First you have to become aware of them; next you have to shake them off and stomp them by challenging them. Finally you have to replace them with more positive and affirming thoughts!
Stomps those ANTS!
So, STOMP your ANTs before it’s too late!
Taken from a book by Jack Canfield – The Success Principles, how to get from where you are to where you want to be!
Here’s part 4 of my A-Z of Positive Thinking images series. (I redrew this and coloured it up a few years later – so you might have seen it before!)
And a few of my other favourite Determination quotes:
“Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.” Gail Devers
“We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history.”Sonia Johnson
The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.
Vince Lombardi
Here’s the third in the series of A – Z of Positive Thinking. With a few COURAGE quotes…
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power. Alan Cohen
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose. Tom Krause
Here’s another page from the book written by Peter Sinclair and illustrated by yours truly!
Best wishes,

‘I will embrace my liberty to commit to my own dreams and because of this I will know TRUE FREEDOM.’
My Life is a MASTERPIECE!
Freedom is your human right. You were not created to be imprisoned. You were created to roam free. Free as a bird, knowing no limits. No mountain is too high. No sea is too wide. Your future is awaiting you, so what are you going to do about it? For you are an individual with incredible talent. Your life is just one colour of humanities rainbow. So go ahead and splash the world’s canvas with your brush. The world is waiting to hear your voice, to see your contribution and to experience the beat of your heart and the liberty of your life.
Humour is one of the greatest environments in which you can learn some of your greatest lessons. So with the humour exuding from Richard’s cartoons and the seriousness of some of my writing that accompanies them, you will be supplied with a perfectly combined motivator that will be fixed in your mind and heart for many years to come.
Mentally and visually stimulated, you too will be challenged and equipped to be the very best that you were created to become.
Enjoy!

“…where Quality Motivational Content is Paramount!”
When a prickle pierces a bare foot, all the body is concerned about at that moment is how to alleviate the pain that has just penetrated its space. Nothing else is important. A minor event has suddenly become a major and until that thorny prickle is removed, nothing else really matters. The best way to deal with such an event is to quickly remove the prickle and to continue on your way. Don’t stay there. Don’t stop. Refuse to be deterred by the interruption and continue to move forward in the pursuit of your dreams. Don’t be distracted from your plan. Move forward with confidence.
When commissioning cartoons… Pick TWO of the three options!
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I’ll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!
Good+Cheap = Slow Choose good and cheap and I’ll still do a great job at a discounted price. But you’ll have to be patient while I fit you in after my higher paying clients, updating my web site, going down the gym, my footy matches, rounds of golf and liquid lunches!
Fast+Cheap = Inferior Choose this option at your peril. It will still be delivered on time but it will be inferior, as many corners as possible will be cut. You know the saying ‘You get what you pay for!’ The least favorable option in my opinion!
