Selected Quotes from the Book:
1) We must have a positive state of mind when dealing with problems.
2) Being positive does not mean we neglect the negative. We must constructively deal with negative situation whilst simultaneously focusing on the positive.
3) Just like our tounge can be obsessed with something stuck in our teeth, our mind has a default setting to be obsessed about the negative.

4) Gratitude is a state of being that allows us to see the positive. It comes from realising that there is good in the world, that some of that good is with us.

6) Saying things in anger damages our relationships. Hence, we should try to avoid doing so.
