“Always leave enough time in your life to do something that makes you happy, satisfied, even joyous. That has more of an effect on economic well-being than any other single factor.” Paul Hawkin “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain “Enabling your associates to work at their very best is at the core of managerial leadership. Note that selection of the word enabling is purposeful —’making able; making it possible for’ —as leadership today is so much more about creating environments where people can succeed than it is about making decisions or getting them done individually.” Peter Topping “Be like the bird that, passing on her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing that she hath wings.” Victor Hugo “A man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm.” Charles M. Schwab “What exactly is success? For me it is to be found not in applause, but in the satisfaction of feeling that one is realizing one’s ideal.” Anna Pavlova “The strongest principle of growth lies in human choice.” George Elliot “The only way in which one human being can properly attempt to influence another is by encouraging him to think for himself, instead of endeavoring to instill ready-made opinions into his head.” Leslie Stephen “Chance is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish.” Ovid “If we know how to listen to our own heart, we can listen to the hearts of others.” Stephen R. Covey “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life…Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” Steve Jobs
“The quality of your attention determines the quality of other people’s thinking.” Nancy Kline |
“The more we learn to operate in the world based on trust in our intuition, the stronger our channel will be and the more money we will have.” Shakti Gawain “Undoubtedly, we become what we envisage.” Claude M. Bristol “What I am actual saying is that we need to be willing to let our intuition guide us, and then be willing to follow that guidance directly and fearlessly.” Shakti Gawain “All that a man does outwardly is but the expression and completion of his inward thought. To work effectively, he must think clearly; to act nobly, he must think nobly.” William Ellery Channing “The most important attribute of successful people is not that they always succeed, but that they respond to failure by coming back and redoubling their efforts.” Mary Farrell “Happiness, happiness…the flavor is with you….with you alone, and you can make it as intoxicating as you please.” Joseph Conrad “When you feel grateful, you become great, and eventually attract great things.” Plato “In every difficult situation is potential value. Believe this, then begin looking for it.” Norman Vincent Peale “I shut my eyes in order to see.” Paul Gaugin “We will discover the nature of our particular genius when we stop trying to conform to our own or to other peoples’ models, learn to e ourselves, and allow our natural channel to open.” Shakti Gawain “The fact is, we’ll never have all the information we need to make a decision —if we did, it would be a foregone conclusion, not a decision.” David Mahoney “When your values are clear to you making decisions becomes easier.” Roy Disney “Five minutes just before going to sleep, given to a bit of directed imagination regarding achievement possibilities of the morrow, will steadily and increasingly bear fruit, particularly if all ideas of difficulty, worry or fear are resolutely ruled out and replaced by those of accomplishment and smiling courage.” Frederick Pierce |
