From the Big Leap by Gay Hendricks

Life is at it’s best when love, money and creativity are growing in harmony.

From The Power of Now by Ekhart Tolle

‘See if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought about a situation you find yourself in. What other people say or do, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. See if you can catch yourself complaining.

For to complain is always non-acceptance of what is and it invariable carries an unconscious negative charge. So when you complain you make yourself a victim. Either leave the situation, change the situation or accept it. All else is madness.’

From The Greatest Salesman in The World by Og Mandino

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 eforts
to become the highest mountain of all
and I will strain my potential
until it cries for mercy.

Feel love inside yourself by Denis Waitley

After devoting most of my lifetime to investigating the wellsprings of personal and professional success, I’m able to make the following statements with great confidence:

• You need to feel love inside yourself before you can offer it to anyone else.
• Your own sense of value determines the quality of your performance. Performance is only a reflection of internal worth, not a measure of it.
• The less you try to impress, the more impressive you are.
• What you show the world on the outside is a mirror image of how you feel on the inside.
• You should chase your passion, not your pension.

The key trait shared by athletic champions and winners in every walk of life is the fundamental belief in one’s own internal value.

By My Attention to Things, I Am Making Choices – Abraham

What people do not understand is that you do not choose something by looking at it and shouting “Yes, I would like some of that!” You make your choices by your attention to things. In this Universe that is based on attraction, when you look at an unwanted thing, your attention to it causes an activation of the Vibration within you, and then the Law of Attraction brings more like it into your experience.

— Abraham

Excerpted from the book, The Vortex, Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships

Fear is False Evidence Appearing Real – Denis Waitley

Zig Ziglar says that fear is False Evidence Appearing Real. Fear can shut you down if you choose to allow it, or it can be a fuel used to move you on to greater heights of achievement. This week, ask yourself which fear do you struggle most with and then start to work on ways to counteract and face your fears. —Denis Waitley

From the 21 day consciousness cleanse by Debbie Ford
No matter how many games we play inside our minds, things aren’t going to get better until we pull ourselves out of denial and admit that a great life is not going to happen next week, or next month, or next year – unless we make it happen. Our lives won’t get better until we take them on with the same urgency we would use to save a drowning child. Our lives really won’t get better until we stop beating ourselves up emotionally and psychologically. There are no seconds to waste. Tomorrow is today, Change doesn’t happen in the future, it happens right now, by taking action in the present.

We are at our very best, and we are happiest by Earl Nightingale
We are at our very best, and we are happiest,
when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy,
on the journey toward the goal we’ve established for ourselves.
It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep.
It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile.

From the Passion Test by Janet Bray Attwood and Chris Attwood

• Your life won’t look the way you think it will.
• Get clear on the “what” and the “how” will begin to appear.
• Your challenge is to stay open, let go of your concepts about how your life should be, and embrace the way it is.
• It takes courage to follow your own path. Surround yourself with people who support you in following your dreams. Avoid spending time with people who try to destroy them.

Below is my interpretation of ideas presented in several self improvement books I’ve read:

The Universe’s currency is ideas. That all of us can be, do and have anything we desire by taking action on those ideas. A small slightly expanded action out of our comfort zone at a time.

Other quotes I like:

We are not disturbed by what happens to us, but by our thoughts about what happens.
- Epictetus (Greek philosopher)

“The major reason for setting a goal is for what it makes of you to accomplish it. What it makes of you will always be the far greater value than what you get.”

- John F. Kennedy

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal;
Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

There are two great days
in a person’s life-
the day we are born
and the day we discover why.

When you follow your bliss…
doors will open where you would not have thought
there would be doors; and where
there wouldn’t be a door for anyone else.

somewhere and sometimes,
but everywhere and always.
