It’s what you practice in private that you will be rewarded for in public.

The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck.

Knowing you have failed to live up to your own standards is the ultimate pain, knowing that you have fulfilled your highest vision is the ultimate pleasure.

There is no greatness without a passion to be great, whether it’s the aspiration of an athlete or an artist, a scientist, a parent, or a businessperson.

Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year – and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade

The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck.

Where focus goes, energy flows

You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.

It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.

Why live an ordinary life, when you can live an extraordinary one.

The more rejection you get, the better you are, the more you’ve learned, the closer you are to your outcome… If you can handle rejection, you’ll learn to get everything you want.

People who succeed at the highest level are not lucky; they’re doing something differently than everyone else.

Life is found in the dance between your deepest desire and your greatest fear

Everybody’s got a past. The past does not equal the future unless you live there

Lasting change is different than a goal. You don’t always get your goals, but you always get your standards

Passion is the genesis of genius

The secret to living is giving

It’s your unlimited power to care and to love that can make the biggest difference in the quality of your life.

A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken a new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.

Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.

All personal breakthroughs begin with a change in beliefs. So how do we change? The most effective way is to get your brain to associate massive pain to the old belief. You must feel deep in your gut that not only has this belief cost you pain in the past, but it’s costing you in the present and, ultimately, can only bring you pain in the future.

Live life fully while you’re here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You’re going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don’t try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.

Do what you did in the beginning of a relationship and there won't be an end.

The only way a relationship will last is if you see it as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.

The quality of your life is the quality of where you live emotionally

What makes a relationship work is things in common, what makes it passionate is that things are very different.

Why do people persist in a dissatisfying relationship, unwilling either to work toward solutions or end it and move on? It's because they know changing will lead to the unknown, and most people believe that the unknown will be much more painful than what they're already experiencing.

The fastest way to feel connection, a sense of how significant your life is, a deep sense of certainty and variety, and put yourself in a state where you can give to others, is to find a way each day to appreciate more and expect less

Everybody’s life is either rewarding or an example

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more

Begin to live as though your prayers are already answered

Life is found in the dance between your deepest desire and your greatest fear.

Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment.

It’s your unlimited power to care and to love that can make the biggest difference in the quality of your life.

I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.

Why live an ordinary life, when you can live an extraordinary one.

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about learning to dance in the rain

It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute… that gives meaning to our lives.

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If you don’t, life controls you.

I’ve come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.

Identify your problems, but give your power and energy to solutions.

A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken a new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.

New Year = A New Life! Decide today who you will become, what you will give how you will live

Leaders spend 5% of their time on the problem & 95% of their time on the solution. Get over it & crush it!

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular

The only problem we really have is we think we’re not supposed to have problems! Problems call us to higher level

Your past does not equal your future

For changes to be of any true value, they’ve got to be lasting and consistent
