Ernest Hemingway
“There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.”
Ernest Hemingway

Viktor E. Frankl
“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—in the long-run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Dalai Lama XIV
“If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.”
Dalai Lama XIV

Richard Carlson
“Meanwhile, life keeps moving forward. The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when?”
Richard Carlson, PhD.

Richard Carlson
“Your heart, the compassionate part of you, knows that it’s impossible to feel better at the expense of someone else.”
Richard Carlson, Don't Sweat the Small Stuff ... and It's All Small Stuff: Simple Ways to Keep the Little Things From Taking Over Your Life
