One of the worse things you can do is to listen to those whose only
words are those of discouragement or words
like 'I told you that you couldn't do it'. Words from those who
seem to celebrate your defeat rather than your successes
are the very same people who often have internalized the
fear of failure in their own lives.
Byron Pulsifer, Discouraged, Downtrodden, and Anguish
Defeat
-
Quite honestly, I can't imagine how anyone can say: "I'm weak," and then
remain so. After all, if you know it, why not fight against it,
why not try to train your character? The answer was: "Because it's
so much easier not to!" This reply rather discouraged me. Easy? Does
that mean that a lazy, deceitful life is an easy life?
Oh no, that can't be true, it mustn't be true, people can so easily
be tempted by slackness... and by money.
Anne Frank, The Diary of a young girl Anne Frank
Character

If you are in a period of discouragement because you are going through
a trial and you are asking yourself, 'Why is this happening to me?'
... Never make a major decision when you are depressed,
because at that time your feelings are unreliable and you cannot
exercise accurate judgment. Your focus is blurry, and your perspective
is distorted. Instead, face the storm head-on and don't get involved
in self-pity.
Rick Warren, God's Answers to Life's Difficult Questions
Decision

To be discouraged is to view that which is current as acondition that
will always be. The process of turning discouragement into renewal
and a vision of accomplishment is to utilize aspects of what didn't yield results into
a refined attempt to begin afresh. It is not the world's problem that
discouragement is experienced; it is more that one chooses to allow circumstances
to dictate one's future.
Theodore W. Higgingsworth

When we allow bad times to linger too long in our minds,

"You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's

cherish them over a lifetime."

discouraged at the challenges that face us. We give up far too easily,

"You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot lift the wage-earner by
pulling down the wage-payer.
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting
class hatred. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them
what they could and should do for themselves."
William Boetcker

"Would you like me to give you a formula for...success?
It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure...
You're thinking of failure as the enemy of success.
But it isn't at all... You can be discouraged by failure--or you can learn from it.
So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can.
Because, remember that's where you'll find success. On the far side."
