Being happy vs. becoming happy
Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of travelling.

Smile in trouble
I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. ’Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death.

Thanks to the loyal bunch
As many of you know, one of my goals for this blog was and is to reach one million views. So far I reached a little bit more than 500.000 views, and I am really proud of that.
But what makes me way more proud and very thankful are my loyal readers, the subscribers who get my posts every day. Some of you read the mail, some the rss-feed and some might just read the posts via wordpress. Together you make up the loyal readership that I can address every single day and as of this week you reached the 2000-people-barrier.
Wow! To be honest, it took me quite a while to grasp the fact that every day or at least every other day, 2000 people are reading my posts. As you know I do not use this blog for anything else than posting quotes and (very infrequently) some texts about motivation and I intend to keep it that way. I am very grateful for your loyalty and I enjoy the constant growth of my readership a lot. You are a big reason for me to prepare a post every day, you give me the motivation to keep this blog alive. And in return, I try my best to give you some motivation for your everyday struggles.
That’s it for today, just a big THANK YOU for your support and your trust in my content.
Best wishes,
Phil

Do it

Happiness is easy
If we only wanted to be happy, it would be easy; but we want to be happier than other people, and that is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.

Say thank you
When life is sweet say thank you and celebrate. And when life is bitter say thank you and grow.

Hunters approach to live
Sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whiskey and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind but falling in love and not getting arrested.
Hunter S. Thompson
I’ll use todays post to repeat how greatly I appreciate Hunter S. Thompson, his books, his lifestyle and his general approach to being a human.
If you have not read anything by him, start today! A great author and a very unique character.
