There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who do not. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living.

Do not judge me by my success; judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again.
– Nelson Mandela
Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself. Never pity yourself. Be a hard master to yourself-and be lenient to everybody else.
– Henry Ward Beecher
Our dilemma is that we hate change and love it at the same time; what we really want is for things to remain the same but get better

In a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.

Your mind is like a parachute; it doesn’t work if it isn’t open

We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Master yourself and you master your environment. Such is the nature of wisdom.

Don’t aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one’s personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one’s surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long-run success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it
