Don't surrender leadership of your life to your moods.

 

No one can defeat us unless we first defeat ourselves.

 

You cannot have what you want if you are content to remain what you are.

 

It's better to be a lion for a day than a sheep all your life.

 

The people that get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, make them.

 

He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he that loses his courage loses all.

 

I slept and dreamt that life was Joy, and then I awoke and realized that life was Duty, And then I went to work-- and lo and behold I discovered that Duty can be Joy.

 

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it -- every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.

 

To make a man happy, fill his hands with work, his heart with affection, his mind with purpose, his  memory with useful knowledge, his future with hope, and his stomach with food.

 

The key to a great life lies in shifting your focus from accumulation to contribution. The old saying He who gathers the most toys wins needs to be replaced with He who serves the most prospers.

Remember, happiness is the by-product of a life spent adding value to other people's lives.

 

Only you can make your dreams come true. 

 

While we cannot choose how we will die, we can always choose how we will live.

 

When you were born, the world rejoiced while you cried. Live your life in such a way that, when you die, the world cries while you rejoice.

 

As you live your day, so you live your life

 

The purpose of life is to manifest your talents in pursuit of a worthy ideal.

 

No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated and disciplined.

 

Every day is a new chance to start living a new life.

Do the thing you fear to do and just keep on doing it. That is the quickest and surest way ever discovered to conquer fear.

 

I will govern my life and thoughts as if the whole world were to see the one and to read the other.

 

The most satisfied and enlightened people realize that successful and dynamic living starts from within. Before you can care for others, you must care for yourself.

 

Most people try to know more to become more clever every day, where as I attempt to become more simple and uncomplicated everyday. -Zen expression

 

Simplify your life. Don't waste the years struggling for things that are unimportant. Don't burden yourself with possessions. Keep your needs and wants simple and enjoy what you have. Don't destroy your peace of mind by looking back, worrying about the past. Live in the present. Simplify!
