You can numb the pain, but that hasn’t erased your problem, it’s just given it time to grow.
When you fall don’t get up until you figure out what tripped you.
We are all addicted to something whether we admit it or not.
Success lies in one’s ability to learn from mistakes.
Instead of visualizing the price of failure try visualizing the rewards of success. You'll make it.
None of us are making it out of here alive. You could always earn more money and buy nicer things, but you can never earn or buy more time. So just enjoy your life as much as you can.
I refuse to achieve 'success' at the expense of my life.
Life is too short to mess things up. Go make shit happen.
You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft, that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.
Success is not about material things. Success is about the happiness you feel in your heart and the happiness you give to others in your life.
I’ve learned more from discomfort than I could ever have learned from pleasure.
I've traveled the world, I've searched the literature. Nothing has answered my questions like the life and words of Jesus. I'm not into religion, I'm into a relationship with him. Several years ago I was in a Seattle airport washroom during an earthquake (what a place to die!). I'd been on a trip to check out a job offering three times my current salary. I'd been dreaming about a step up the ladder, about all the stuff I could buy, all the prestige I could have. But the earthquake shook me hard. (As the place shook, the guy in the stall next to me yelled, 'Did I do that?') Back on the plane, I wrote down my definition of success on an airline napkin: 'I will consider myself a success when I'm walking close to Jesus every day, when I'm building a strong marriage and performing meaningful work. I'll consider myself a success when I'm making others homesick for heaven.' That's my life mission and I can't believe how much fun I'm having following it.
With this morning’s sunrise comes a day of things that have never been.
You are as invincible as you decide to be.
Learn how to lead, with your body and actions, not words.
Do something you’ve never done to achieve something you’ve never achieved.
The celebration of a new year has little to do with a new calendar and everything to do with a new start.
Take an inventory of the people to whom you are indebted for the good life you have. Honor them with a good thought, a thank you note, or an act of service. There’s nothing more empowering than the human connection.
Life is in motion so everything is changing: your body, your mind, your relationships, your environment. You can’t control what happens around you, but you have control of what happens within you.
What happened before does not determine what will happen next. YOU DO.
