Priorities

The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.

Laugh out loud

Take a moment, think about this moment, about yourself, about the world, humanity, about this exact moment in life.

When you realize how perfect everything is, you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky.

The ambivalence of happiness

Learn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.

Jim Rohn

I love this quote!

This is the essential thought in the pursuit of happiness.

Always reach for the stars, but do not make the mistake of seeing them as requirement to happiness. Combine modest gratitude with eager ambition. Be able to enjoy and at the same time crave for more!

Habits

Motivation is what gets you started, habit is what keeps you going.

Cultivate good habits! This is very important.

Habits will form your character like nothing else. Take good care of them.

Words to live by

Talk happiness. The world is sad enough ithout your woe.

Orison Swett Marden

Simple as it sounds: Talk more positively!

Appreciate stuff, no matter how small it may seem and don’t dwell on negative thoughts. Put happiness in this world, not only others but also you will thank you, trust me!

Do not quit!

Do not quit. Not right now!

Keep on going, keep on digging, keep on working hard!

Maybe you are closer to your goal than you imagine.

Keep it up!

Be present

I think the problem is that people spend so much time worrying about what might happen, what might go wrong, that they completely lose sight of the present. They completely overlook the fact that, actually, right now, everything’s perfectly fine.

So the trick, whenever possible, I propose, is to stop your brain from running on ahead of you.

Calm down

If you can’t control your anger, you are as helpless as a city without walls waiting to be attacked.

Anger is the path to the dark side. Do not go there. And if you must, go there willingly, controlled.
