Three grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, something to love, and something to hope for.
Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.
Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.
Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.
If you believe in what you're doing, you'll be successful.
Happiness and success in life are not the result of what we have, but rather of how we live. What we do with the things we have makes the biggest difference in the quality of life.
What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.
Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly.
There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.
I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Nothing will sabotage our happiness and success more thoroughly than the fear that we are not enough.
Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.
Training and managing your own mind is the most important skill you could ever own, in terms of both happiness and success.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.
A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
Remember that failure is an event, not a person.
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
