AMAZINGLY INSPIRING ONE LINER LIGHTENING BOLTS OF WIT and WISDOM
BE GRATEFUL
The universe loves gratitude—
the more you are grateful
for what is good in your life,
The more good you get to be grateful for.
—Louise Hays
SELF INFLICTED Suffering
We suffer more in our imagination
Than in reality.
—Seneca
YOUR TIME TO SHINE IS NOW
Its never too late to be
What you might have been.
—George Eliot
LIFE IS FOR LIVING FULL OUT
Life is either a daring adventure
Or nothing!
—Helen Keller
OUR THOUGHTS CREATE OUR REALITY
Our life is what our thoughts
Make it.
—Marcus Aurelius
THINK BEFORE YOU JUDGE
Thinking is difficult—
That is why most people judge.
—Carl Jung
WHAT THEY THINK OF YOU IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS
Care about what other people think of you
And you will always be their prisoner.
—Lao Tzu
BE QUIET
A fool is known his speech
And a man by his silence.
—Pythagoras
THE BETTER THE COMPANY YOU KEEP, THE BETTER YOU BECOME
If you are the smartest person in the room,
Then you are in the wrong room.
—Confucius
LISTEN QUIETLY and HEAR
The quieter you become,
The more you will be able to hear.
—Rumi
YOU GET TO CHOOSE
Whether you think you can,
Or think you can’t, you
Are always right.
—Henry Ford
LOVE YOUR SELF and BE HAPPY
Comparing yourself to others is the
Thief of your joy.
—C.S. Lewis
LIVE YOUR DREAMS
The future belongs to those who
Believe in the beauty of their dreams.
—Eleanor Roosevelt
WE ALL HAVE IMMENSE UNREALIZED POTENTIAL
If we actually did all the things
We are capable of,
We would literally astound ourselves.
-Thomas Edison
MAGIC WAITS FOR YOU
The magic you seek
Lies on the other side of doing the
Work you have been avoiding.
—Yeshe Gyamtso
THE PATH TO LIMITLESS JOY
Consciously choosing to want what you already have,
Instead of complaining about what you want but do not have ,
Is the path to contentment, inner peace and unbounded joy!
—Chinmayan
