"Attitude is the mind's paintbrush.
it can color any situation." 
Anonymous

I think i do know what this quote is saying. With your attitude you are trying to paint something in life. Your attitude can color any situation you are in to be successful. You have to imagine your attitude as a paintbrush. It can paint either a dark picture of a joyful one. But in any situation you are in then it will help you color it. For example if you are in a basketball game and you loose the game you will have to have a good attitude in order to paint a nice portrait.

"He who walks with the wise grows wise 
but a companion of fools suffers harm".
A Proverb

I really do agree with this quote because its a really good one and ive witnessed it before. Just cause somebody does something doesnt mean you have to do it. A lot of people do the same things there peers do. So when your in a group of friends that does not d ogood things then most likely you'll do bad things as well. If you hang out with the wise and the people who ctr the nyou will grow rise and successful. But when you walk with fools then you will suffer harm. For example if your group of friends do not do their homework and fail, then most likely you will do the same as well.

"You cant hire someone else 
to do your push- ups for you." 
Jim Rohn

I think this quote by John Rohn means you cant let someone to do all the hard work for you in order to become a success in life. If you want to do something it has to come from you. Once you do it for yourself then the greatness is all for you. You cant let someone do things for you becaus ethen you'll be nothing in life. For example you can let someone do your homework for you but then you will loose the knowledge. You cant hire someone to make a positive impact on yourself it has to be you in order to do that.
