Gratitude

“Say Yes to Life. Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.”

“Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it because it gives any challenge or any occupation, no matter how frightening or difficult, a new meaning. Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it you can accomplish miracles.”

“Learn from the past, set vivid, detailed goals for the future, and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now.”

“Live out of your imagination, not your history.”

“Never regret. If it’s good, it’s wonderful. If it’s bad, it’s experience.”

“Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give.”

“Nothing is more effective than sincere, accurate praise, and nothing is more lame than a cookie-cutter compliment.”

“I would rather be able to appreciate things I cannot have than to have things I am not able to appreciate.”

“See how many are better off than you are, but consider how many are worse.”

“Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.”

“Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn’t stop to enjoy it.”
