“Happiness is the DNA of pleasure.”

The business of business is relationships; the business of life is human connection.

The way you begin each day defines how you’ll live each day.

The true value of a big dream is who you must grow into to live that dream.

Your life is a mirror. Life gives us not what we want. Life gives us who we are.

Critics only speak up when they see someone shining. Average work doesn’t threaten them.

Until our mission becomes our obsession, we’ll be chained to the realm of average.

See your life as a giant adventure. Keep pushing the envelope, and remember that every dream starts off small.

Investing in yourself is the best investment you will ever make. It will not only improve your life, it will improve the lives of all those around you.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher.

The real reward for doing your best work is not the money you make but the leader you become.

It’s amazing how far you will get by just staying with something long enough. Most people give up too early.

Only those who seek shall find.

Less gossiping, more learning. Less complaining, more excelling. Less walls, more bridges. Less fear, more courage.

We are all here for some special reason. Stop being a prisoner of your past. Become the architect of your future.

The activity you’re most avoiding contains your biggest opportunity.

Nothing works unless you do the work.

Never outsource your happiness to someone else. Derive it from within by enjoying your own company.

We don’t make mistakes. We just have happy accidents.

Your thoughts must be congruent with your actions to achieve happiness

Don’t be afraid to take charge, think about what you want, then do the work, but then enjoy what makes you happy, bring along your crew, have a sense of humor.

Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have.

What would a narrative of happiness be like? All that can be described is what prepares it, and then what destroys it.

Envying another man’s happiness is madness; you wouldn’t know what to do with it if you had it.

It’s more important to try to surround yourself with people who can give you a little happiness.
