16. THE POSTURE OF A WINNER

Martha Graham

Movement never lies.

Paul McKenna

Think of all the leading sportsmen, businessmen and other successful people. All of them walk with their postures straight but at the same time relaxed. They move baldly and with high confidence.
Imagine there’s a silver thread coming down your spine from the very top of your head. It gently holds your head upright, keeping your body straight.

Richard M. DeVos

… the riches of life, the love and joy and exhilaration of life can be found only with an upward look. This is an exciting world. It’s cram-packed with opportunity. Great moments wait around every corner.

(Robert K. Cooper, 2006)

Helen Keller, a blind and deaf-mute woman says:
Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye. She learned that all of her senses become dimmed when she bends or curls up, but when she is relaxed and stands straight, they seem to reach much further.
