You need to learn how to select your thoughts just the
same way you select your clothes every day. This is a power you can cultivate.
If you want to control things in your life so bad, work on the mind. That’s the
only thing you should be trying to control.
A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to
life that nothing else can bring.
As soon as you look at
the world through an ideology you are finished. No reality fits an ideology.
Life is beyond that. That is why people are always searching for a meaning to
life… Meaning is only found when you go beyond meaning. Life only makes sense
when you perceive it as mystery and it makes no sense to the conceptualizing
mind.
~ Anthony de Mello
The meaning of your life plays out before your eyes.
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of
intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better
place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This
is to have succeeded.
And as we let our own
light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As
we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
I believe that being
successful means having a balance of success stories across the many areas of
your life. You can't truly be considered successful in your business life if
your home life is in shambles.
~ Zig Ziglar
If you command yourself, it will show in every area of your life.
What I like most about change is that it’s a synonym for
“hope”. If you are taking a risk, what you are really saying is, “I believe in
tomorrow and I will be part of it.”
