Epictetus The Enchiridion #4
"People are disturbed, not by things, but by the principles and notions with which they form judgements concerning things." ~ Epictetus The Enchiridion #4 ~
Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but rather when there is nothing more to take away.
~ Antoine de Saint-Exupry ~
Happiness is a mental habit, a mental attitude, and if it is not learned and practiced in the present it is never experienced. It cannot be made contingent on solving some external problem. When one problem is solved, another appears to take its place. Life is a series of problems. If you are to be happy at all, you must be happy — period! — not happy “because of.”
Maxwell Maltz
Happiness (or prosperity) is not a commodity like the last candy bar on a deserted island populated by three castaways or the last hour of oxygen in a sealed vault in which several people have been locked up.
Maxwell Maltz
You make each day a special day by just your being you. There's no person in the whole world like you, and I like you just the way you are.
Fred Rogers (Mr. Rogers)
What a wonderful affirmation to say to ourselves while looking in the mirror every morning.
Your thoughts, feelings, and visualized imagery are the organizing principles of your experience
Joseph Murphy
It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
