The Positive Factor

If you want your children to turn out well, spend twice as much time with them, and half as much money.

Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don’t even remember leaving open.

We must look for ways to be an active force in our own lives. We must take charge of our own destinies, design a life of substance and truly begin to live our dreams.

The only way to do great work is to love what you do.

It’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.

It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves, that will make them successful human beings.

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.

For fast acting relief, try slowing down.

Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journey.

The truth is of course is that there is no journey. We are arriving and departing all at the same time.

There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.

I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring.

The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.

Don't be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.
