One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today. –Dale Carnegie
Any Action Is Good
Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all. –Norman Vincent Peale
What Action Can You Take?
Success comes from taking the initiative and following up… persisting… eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action could you take today to produce a new momentum toward success in your life? –Tony Robbins
Take Responsibility
In the last analysis, the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for “finding himself.” If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else, he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence. –Thomas Merton
Stop And Enjoy It
Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn’t stop to enjoy it. –William Feather
Put Your Plan Into Action
Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action. –Napoleon Hill
Become A Mountain
I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply ALL my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy. –Og Mandino
Take Consistent Action
In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently. –Tony Robbins
Sit Quietly And Let Happiness Find You
Happiness is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. –Nathaniel Hawthorne
A Negative Can Actually Be A Gift
It’s a disease that makes you uncomfortable, so, all things considered, that’s not too bad. It’s still a gift in that it makes one alive. To see what I’ve lost makes me see what I’ve gained and what I have. –Michael J. Fox
