“the only evidence to indicate it wasn’t all a dream was Yamamoto’s business card, which he had revived in exchange. That was how things gradually became part of the past.” pg 231

“no one can tell whether something is positive or negative while that something is happening. life is about changing whatever happens into a necessary experience in your life. true positive thinking is about seeing everything that happens in life as necessary no matter what it is. it’s not about thinking positively toward what might happen but toward what did happen.” pg 193

“in reality, the world is the collaborative energy derived from witnessing someone’s efforts, not from the results achieved.” pg 184

“use your time for the happiness of others. You spend time for the sake of someone’s happiness and by doing so you also gained something. the difference between what you did for someone versus what they did for you is luck.” pg 146

"there's no greater feeling of fulfillment that when i've made someone happy through what I do. those are the kinds of moments I want to keep accumulating in my life." pg 119

“improving your luck is, to put it another way, a turning point in life. it’s a starting point from which your life gradually gets better, and not necessarily a place where something extraordinary happens. it’s a place that you might look back on later and realize ‘this is where it all began.’ so, it’s not that nothing happens there, but that you might not feel like anything special happened.”

“the seed that produces miracles in our lives are all around us”
