{"quotes":[{"text":"If you think the world is full of darkness, let us see your light. If you think the world is full of wickedness, let us see your goodness. If you think people are acting wrongly, let us see your right action. If you think people don't know, let us see what you know. If you think the world is full of uncaring people let us see how you care about people. If you think life is not being fair to you, let us see how you can be fair to life. If you think people are proud, let us see your humility. We can easily find fault and we can easily see what is wrong but a positive attitude backed by a right action in a true direction is all we need to survive in peace and harmony in the arena of life.","author":"Ernest Agyemang Yeboah","tags":["action","action","attitude","bad-attitude","bad-people","conflict","criticism","do-the-right-thing","fault-finders","good-people-are-rare","humility","negative-attitude","negative-thinking","peace-and-harmony","political-tension","positive","positive-thinking","thought","war"],"id":19427,"author_id":"Ernest+Agyemang+Yeboah"},{"text":"Those who are against you, just let them enjoy their time.

One of the simplest things we can ever do is to tell how wrong people are. One of the most thoughtless things we can ever do is to show people their faults unconstructively. It is always so easy and common to do such things but, before you do that, find the uncommon reasons for the faulty life.Yes! Before you do that, identify how to correct a faulty life and before you do that, think of what drives and invokes the joy, slothfulness or the melancholy in people. Until you go through what people have been through, until you experience what has become a part of people, until you understand what drives the real interest of people and until you become fully aware of the real vision, aspirations, desires and the needs of others, ponder before you criticize!","author":"Ernest Agyemang Yeboah","tags":["aspirations","attitude","bad-attitude","be-in-the-shoes-of-others","criticism","easiest-things-in-life","empathy","hopes-and-dreams","judgemental-people","judging-actions","judging-by-appearance","judging-others","pessimism","ponder","psychology","reasons","reasons-why","unconstructive-criticism"],"id":59695,"author_id":"Ernest+Agyemang+Yeboah"},{"text":"Shift yourself away from the slippery ground of bad attitudes and you’ll not drift off!","author":"Israelmore Ayivor","tags":["attitude","bad","bad-attitude","change-position","drift","fall","food-for-thought","israelmore-ayivor","shift","slippery","stand-still"],"id":129759,"author_id":"Israelmore+Ayivor"},{"text":"All my life I have placed great store in civility and good manners, practices I find scarce among the often hard-edged, badly socialized scientists with whom I associate.
