Gay Hendricks
“Each of us has an inner thermostat setting that determines how much love, success, and creativity we allow ourselves to enjoy. When we exceed our inner thermostat setting, we will often do something to sabotage ourselves, causing us to drop back into the old, familiar zone where we feel secure. Unfortunately,”
Gay Hendricks, The Big Leap: Conquer Your Hidden Fear and Take Life to the Next Level

Cal Newport
“Clarity about what matters provides clarity about what does not.”
Cal Newport, Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World

Cal Newport
“Ironically, jobs are actually easier to enjoy than free time, because like flow activities they have built-in goals, feedback rules, and challenges, all of which encourage one to become involved in one’s work, to concentrate and lose oneself in it. Free time, on the other hand, is unstructured, and requires much greater effort to be shaped into something that can be enjoyed.”
Cal Newport, Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World

Alain de Botton
“The lesson? To respond to the unexpected and hurtful behavior of others with something more than a wipe of the glasses, to see it as a chance to expand our understanding.”
Alain de Botton, How Proust Can Change Your Life

Gay Hendricks
“I expand in abundance, success, and love every day, as I inspire those around me to do the same.”
Gay Hendricks, The Big Leap: Conquer Your Hidden Fear and Take Life to the Next Level
