In times of need, God can come to you in a myriad of disguises.

The truth is that there is no actual stress or anxiety in the world; it’s your thoughts that create these false beliefs. You can’t package stress, touch it, or see it. There are only people engaged in stressful thinking.

You aren’t your work, your accomplishments, your possessions, your home, your family… your anything. You’re a creation of your Source, dressed in a physical human body intended to experience and enjoy life on Earth.

Wayne Dyer

I have observed that society in general always seems to honor its living conformists and its dead troublemakers.

As I followed my dream – stayed in-Spirit, that is, inspired – I made more money in the first year after I gave up my employment than I had made in the previous 35 years of my life.

Genius is a potential that lives within you and every other human being. You have many moments of genius in your lifetime. These are the times when you have a uniquely brilliant idea and implement it even if only you are aware of how fantastic it is.

Wayne Dyer

Know that any and all thoughts that you have regarding your own skills, interests, and inclinations are valid. To reinforce the validity of your thoughts, keep them private. Tell yourself that they’re between you and God.

Wayne Dyer

Practice radical humility. Take no credit for your talents, intellectual abilities, aptitudes, or proficiencies. Be in a state of awe and bewilderment.

Wayne Dyer

Take the complications, rules, shoulds, musts, have tos, and so on out of your life. By uncomplicating your life and removing the trivial pursuits that occupy so much of it, you open a channel for the genius within you to emerge.

Wayne Dyer

My purpose is to help people look at themselves and begin to shift their concepts. Remember, we are not our country, our race, or religion. We are eternal spirits. Seeing ourselves as spiritual beings without label is a way to transform the world and reach a sacred place for all of humanity.

Wayne Dyer

The fact is that since you’re a divine creation who originated in the world of Spirit, you have exactly the right amount of smarts to accomplish all that you need and want to do while you’re here on earth. It’s all perfect… and so are you!

Wayne Dyer

Writing is like anything else – the more you do it, the better you get at it, the easier it comes, and the less concerned you’ll be about what’s going to happen to it, where it’s going, what it sounds like, whether it’s right.

Wayne Dyer

Remind yourself that the greatest technique for bringing peace into your life is to always choose being kind when you have a choice between being right or being kind.

Wayne Dyer

When your higher self is present, it always promotes peace.

Wayne Dyer

‘Your Erroneous Zones’ was the book that went over the top simply because I believed in it so much.

Wayne Dyer

When I was an orphan, I was the richest kid at the orphanage because everyone else was complaining about not having anything. But when I discovered that you could get two cents for a Coca-Cola bottle, I would follow people around who were drinking it and ask them if they were almost through with it.

Wayne Dyer

I don’t write the books. God writes the books and delivers the speeches.

Wayne Dyer

The essential lesson I’ve learned in life is to just be yourself. Treasure the magnificent being that you are and recognize first and foremost you’re not here as a human being only. You’re a spiritual being having a human experience.

Wayne Dyer

Your life is like a play with several acts. Some of the characters who enter have short roles to play, others, much larger. Some are villains and others are good guys. But all of them are necessary; otherwise, they wouldn’t be in the play. Embrace them all, and move on to the next act.

Wayne Dyer

By taking responsibility for how you choose to respond to anything or anyone, you’re aligning yourself with the beautiful dance of life.

Wayne Dyer

In a universe that’s an intelligent system with a divine creative force supporting it, there simply can be no accidents. As tough as it is to acknowledge, you had to go through what you went through in order to get to where you are today, and the evidence is that you did.

Wayne Dyer

I spent years studying the teachings of Patanjali, and he reminded us several thousand years ago that when we are steadfast – which means that we never slip in our abstention of thoughts of harm directed toward others – then all living creatures cease to feel enmity in our presence.

Wayne Dyer

I grew up in an era of pretty severe poverty. My parents weathered the Great Depression, and money was always a very big concern. I was weaned on a shortage mentality and placed in foster homes largely because there simply wasn’t enough money to take care of the most basic of needs.

Wayne Dyer

My father, who was jailed for stealing on more than one occasion, just abandoned his fatherly responsibilities and disappeared. I grew up working from the time I was nine years of age. Money was a big issue everywhere I lived.

Wayne Dyer

Become slower in your journey through life. Practice yoga and meditation if you suffer from ‘hurry sickness.’ Become more introspective by visiting quiet places such as churches, museums, mountains and lakes. Give yourself permission to read at least one novel a month for pleasure.

Wayne Dyer

Needing to have things perfect is the surest way to immobilize yourself with frustration.

Wayne Dyer

Give yourself more opportunities for privacy, when you are not bombarded with duties and obligations. Privacy is not a rejection of those you love; it is your deserved respite for recharging your batteries.

Wayne Dyer

The Tao teaches us to let go of things. Use the 80/20 rule. If you take all your clothes, you’ll find out that you only wear 20 percent of them. Take what you have and don’t use and circulate it. Give stuff to people who truly need it. After all, we come into this world with nothing; we leave this world with nothing.

Wayne Dyer

In my entire life, any time I’ve ever lost something, I’ve gotten something even better going around the next corner. It’s like one door closes and another door opens. As long as I can walk through the produce section in every grocery store in this country and eat the grapes that they’re going to throw away, I know I can be fine.

Wayne Dyer

Whenever you’re going through a tough time, generally, you become more compassionate, you become softer, you become more thoughtful, kinder. These are all spiritual qualities that will help you to align yourself with God and God consciousness rather than with a split fear-based consciousness.

Wayne Dyer

Water is the softest of all things, yet it is the most powerful. The ocean patiently allows all things to flow into it. It is always flexible. The Tao is not about grasping, but allowing, like water.

Wayne Dyer

As the father of eight children, I’m quite convinced that each individual arrives here with their own unique personality. We are intended here from an invisible held of infinite potentiality. That which has no form, has no boundaries – it’s the I that’s in the ever-changing body.

Wayne Dyer

The greatest service that can be offered to children who show personality traits or inclinations that might not be understood by the adults around them is to allow them to express their own unique humanity.

Wayne Dyer

I know that I came into the world with what I call ‘big dharma’ – with a blueprint to teach self-reliance and a positive loving approach to large numbers of people all over the globe. I am ever so grateful for the circumstances of my life that allowed me to be pretty much left alone and to develop as I was so intended in this incarnation.

Wayne Dyer

One of the huge imbalances in life is the disparity between your daily existence, with its routines and habits, and the dream you have within yourself of some extraordinarily satisfying way of living.

Wayne Dyer

Thoughts are mental energy; they’re the currency that you have to attract what you desire. Learn to stop spending that currency on thoughts you don’t want.

Wayne Dyer

Dream and you shall become.

Wayne Dyer

One of the most important decisions you’ll ever make is choosing the kind of universe you exist in: is it helpful and supportive or hostile and unsupportive? Your answer to this question will make all the difference in terms of how you live your life and what kind of Divine assistance you attract.

Wayne Dyer

I implore you to see the universe as a warm and supportive one because you’ll look for evidence to support this view. When you anticipate that the universe is friendly, you see friendly people. You look for circumstances to work in your favor. You anticipate good fortune flowing into your life.

Wayne Dyer

My favorite affirmation when I feel stuck or out of sorts is: Whatever I need is already here, and it is all for my highest good. Jot this down and post it conspicuously throughout your home, on the dashboard of your car, at your office, on your microwave oven, and even in front of your toilets!

Wayne Dyer

When I was young, my brother David and I were farmed off to foster homes, and I spent time in orphanages. My father abandoned us. Here’s the most important person in my life, and I never met him.

Wayne Dyer

A lot of people have a sense-of-entitlement mentality that somebody else ought to do these things for them. People are mad at the government for not getting jobs for them. I don’t understand why it’s the government’s responsibility.

Wayne Dyer

We only need so much to survive, but this world we live in tells us we need more stuff to be happy. We’re inundated with our televisions, the Internet and advertising that says in order to be happy you have to have these things. When you say, ‘Gimme, gimme, gimme,’ you will always be in short supply.

Wayne Dyer

Keep in mind that no matter how perfectly you get your life in order, you will never be rid of all your problems. Problems are a way of life, always have been, always will be. But how you elect to view those problems is all up to you.

Wayne Dyer

I don’t write with a machine. I write with a pen and a paper, which is what is most comfortable for me.

Wayne Dyer

I always tell audiences when I talk about writing: Writing isn’t something I do; writing is something that I am. I am writing – it’s just an expression of me.

Wayne Dyer

Heaven is a state of mind, not a location, since Spirit is everywhere and in everything.

Wayne Dyer

Everything that’s created comes out of silence. Your thoughts emerge from the nothingness of silence. Your words come out of this void. Your very essence emerged from emptiness. All creativity requires some stillness.

Wayne Dyer

A great hallmark of mental wellness is the ability to be in the present moment, fully and with no thoughts of being elsewhere.

Wayne Dyer

Our present moment is a mystery that we are part of. Here and now is where all the wonder of life lies hidden. And make no mistake about it, to strive to live completely in the present is to strive for what already is the case.

Wayne Dyer

Meditation is difficult for many people because their thoughts are always on some distant object or place. One form of meditation is to label the thought as it appears and then choose to let it go.

Wayne Dyer

The ego is only an illusion, but a very influential one. Letting the ego-illusion become your identity can prevent you from knowing your true self. Ego, the false idea of believing that you are what you have or what you do, is a backwards way of assessing and living life.

Wayne Dyer

Find joy and solace in the simple, and cultivate your utopia by feeling the Tao in every cubic inch of space.

Wayne Dyer

People who truly understand what is meant by self-reliance know they must live their lives by ethics rather than rules.

Wayne Dyer

The child inside of you knows how to take things as they come, how to deal most effectively and happily with everything and everyone it encounters on this planet. If you can recapture that childlike essence of your being, you can stay ‘forever young at heart.’

Wayne Dyer

Faith is the complete reliance on the power and goodness of Spirit and the firm belief that you are always connected to this goodness. Always affirm your faith and not your doubt.

Wayne Dyer

Never, and I mean never, allow anyone else’s ideas of who you can or can’t become sully your dream or pollute your imagination. This is your territory, and a ‘Keep Out’ sign is a great thing to erect at all entrances to your imagination.

Wayne Dyer

When you face a ‘performance’ that might provoke the ‘I’m scared’ response, choose love and approach your opportunity as a chance to dance with God. It’s more fun than ‘Dancing with the Stars!’

Wayne Dyer

Fear is present when we forget that we are a part of God’s divine design. Learning to experience authentic love means abandoning ego’s insistence that you have much to fear and that you are in an unfriendly world. You can make the decision to be free from fear and doubt and return to the brilliant light of love that is always with you.

Wayne Dyer

There is not a separate God for each person. There is one universal intelligence flowing through all of us.

Wayne Dyer

In my own life I know that my state of cheerfulness is a reliable gauge of my level of spiritual enlightenment at that moment. The more cheerful, happy, contented, and satisfied I am feeling, the more aware I am of my deep connection to Spirit.

Wayne Dyer

When you are spiritually connected, you are not looking for occasions to be offended, and you are not judging and labeling others. You are in a state of grace in which you know you are connected to God and thus free from the effects of anyone or anything external to yourself.

Wayne Dyer

If you want to be a voice for peace in the world, begin by making peace a permanent condition of your own life.

Wayne Dyer

Writing is challenging work because it’s so easy to get consumed with how it’s going, what’s going to happen to it, who’s going to like or not like it. You want to get all of that stuff out of your head and just let the work flow.

Wayne Dyer

Meditation is a vital practice to access conscious contact with your highest self.

Wayne Dyer

If life is a checker game, someone else is moving the pieces. It isn’t us. Don’t be surprised by amazing coincidences. There are no accidents. Consider, as I learned to do, the incredible interconnectedness of all of life.

Wayne Dyer

I always joke that my kids’ favorite holiday is Father’s Day. They love the way I celebrate the occasion by writing each of them a thank-you letter and a generous check. It’s my way of letting them know how much I appreciate the great pleasure and privilege of being their dad.

Wayne Dyer

Most of us are raised to believe we are ordinary. The anchor of the universe is present in every child. A parent only needs to guide and step aside and let them fulfill their dharma. Help children remember that they can do or be anything.

Wayne Dyer

Trust and value your own divinity as well as your connection to nature. Seeing God’s work everywhere will be your reward.

Wayne Dyer

I write because writing is something that I have to do. And it doesn’t matter whether people like it or not. When I write, I feel the pressure and anxiety that come with taking an empty piece of paper and trying to fill it with something from your own consciousness.

Wayne Dyer

Van Gogh never made a penny in his entire lifetime. He painted because it was his soul, his excitement. It was what aligned him with his Source of being. It’s the same with me and writing.

Wayne Dyer

An artist or a creative person of any kind goes about their work because it’s their path, it’s what excites them, it’s what aligns their soul with who they truly are, who they showed up to be.

Wayne Dyer

To be more childlike, you don’t have to give up being an adult. The fully integrated person is capable of being both an adult and a child simultaneously. Recapture the childlike feelings of wide-eyed excitement, spontaneous appreciation, cutting loose, and being full of awe and wonder at this magnificent universe.

Wayne Dyer

The child in you, like all children, loves to laugh, to be around people who can laugh at themselves and life. Children instinctively know that the more laughter we have in our lives, the better.

Wayne Dyer

Be a force of love as often as you can and turn away negative thoughts whenever you feel them surface.

Wayne Dyer

Within all of us is a divine capacity to manifest and attract all that we need and desire.

Wayne Dyer

Your Highest Self only wants you to be at peace. It does not judge, compare, or demand that you defeat anyone or be better than anyone.

Wayne Dyer

Your Highest Self is not just an idea that sounds lofty and spiritual. It is a way of being. It is the very first principle that you must come to understand and embrace as you move toward attracting to you that which you want and need for this parenthesis in eternity that you know as your life.

Wayne Dyer

When you’re just like everybody else, you’ve nothing to offer other than your conformity.

Wayne Dyer

One of the greatest lessons of my own life was learning to turn the inner rampage of hatred and anger toward my own father for his reprehensible behavior and abandonment of his family into an inner reaction more closely aligned with God and God-realized love.

Wayne Dyer

I’ve learned over the years that when I go to that place of passion within me, there’s no force in the universe that can interfere with my completing a project.

Wayne Dyer

My enthusiasm seems to cause my world to endlessly offer me cooperative, co-creating experiences. I’m willing and I’m eager, and not just about my writing – I feel the same way about staying in shape, enjoying my family, giving a lecture, or whatever it may be.

Wayne Dyer

If you have passion, there is no need for excuses because your enthusiasm will trump any negative reasoning you might come up with. Enthusiasm makes excuses a nonissue.

Wayne Dyer

When you seek the presence of your creative Spirit and are filled with passion about virtually everything you undertake, you’ll successfully remove the roadblocks from your life and enjoy the active presence of Spirit.

Wayne Dyer

There’s no substitute for the practice of meditation.

Wayne Dyer

I am particularly drawn to the form of meditation called Japa. I know it works.

Wayne Dyer

I think that cancer is a life form that exists out there, and it exists in us. I think even the concept of healing is a spiritual principle that we have to really look at. I think the word itself is something we ought to get rid of, because it implies that there is illness – that there is something wrong.

Wayne Dyer

It’s always interesting about God because it’s like all of the religions in the world say that they pray to the same God, and yet they ask that same one God to divide itself up and agree with this one and fight against that one.

Wayne Dyer

The Tao teaches us not to intervene and interfere. The things we love we have to learn to leave alone. And the people we love we have to learn to let them be.

Wayne Dyer

What is the Tao Te Ching? Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of existence.

Wayne Dyer

I was inspired to spend an entire year – my 65th year – reading, researching, and meditating on Lao-tzu’s messages, practicing them and ultimately writing down these insights as I felt Lao-tzu wanted us to know them.

Wayne Dyer

I don’t believe in ‘thinking’ old. Although I’ve transitioned through many bodies – a baby, toddler, child, teen, young adult, mid-life and older adult – my spirit is unchanged. I support my body with exercise, my mind with reading and writing, and my spirit with the knowing that I am part of the Divine source of all life.

Wayne Dyer

Don’t program yourself to break down as you age with thoughts that decline is inevitable. Time may be passing for our bodies, but because they house our ageless souls, we never need to see ourselves as old and infirm.

Wayne Dyer

Your timeless self does not age and has no fear of the future. Contemplate your physical self and all its possessions, and practice laughing peacefully at it all.

Wayne Dyer

Remember that your imagination is yours and yours alone. You have the inborn capacity to use it in any way that you choose. No one else is responsible for your imagination. Anything placed in your imagination and held there ultimately becomes your reality.

Wayne Dyer

Highly functioning self-actualized people simply never imagine what it is that they don’t wish to have as their reality.

Wayne Dyer

Begin noticing and being careful about keeping your imagination free of thoughts that you do not wish to materialize. Instead, initiate a practice of filling your creative thoughts to overflow with ideas and wishes that you fully intend to manifest. Honor your imaginings regardless of others seeing them as crazy or impossible.

Wayne Dyer

I never sell a book. I sell myself. And the way to sell yourself is to be an instrument of love.

Wayne Dyer

Self-actualized people are independent of the good opinion of others.

Wayne Dyer

A person standing in front of an audience without enthusiasm for his subject and his actions is disconnected from his spirit.

Wayne Dyer

The presence of passion within you is the greatest gift you can receive. Treat it as a miracle.

Wayne Dyer

You can either be a host to God, or a hostage to your ego. It’s your call.

Wayne Dyer

Wanting to feel good is synonymous with wanting to feel God.

Wayne Dyer

Strong emotions such as passion and bliss are indications that you’re connected to Spirit, or ‘inspired,’ if you will. When you’re inspired, you activate dormant forces, and the abundance you seek in any form comes streaming into your life.

Wayne Dyer

The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don’t know anything about.

Wayne Dyer

People who want the most approval get the least and people who need approval the least get the most.

Wayne Dyer

You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought, ‘I release the need for this in my life’.

Wayne Dyer

A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe.

Wayne Dyer

The fact that you are willing to say, ‘I do not understand, and it is fine,’ is the greatest understanding you could exhibit.

Wayne Dyer

Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.

Wayne Dyer

When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.

Wayne Dyer

We’ve been programmed, from the time that we were very, very little, about what we can’t do – about what is impossible.

Wayne Dyer

I grew up in the east side of Detroit in an area where there was very little, except for a lot of scarcity, poverty and hunger. I never woke up saying, ‘I’m an orphan again today, isn’t this terrible? Poor me.’

Wayne Dyer

Your body has space within you that cannot die.

Wayne Dyer

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way.

Wayne Dyer

You are doomed to make choices. This is life’s greatest paradox.

Wayne Dyer

There is no way to prosperity, prosperity is the way.

Wayne Dyer

Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.

Wayne Dyer

You’ll see it when you believe it.

Wayne Dyer

It’s never crowded along the extra mile.

Wayne Dyer

I think and that is all that I am.

Wayne Dyer

Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others.

Wayne Dyer

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

Wayne Dyer

Your children will see what you’re all about by what you live rather than what you say.

Wayne Dyer

Everything you are against weakens you. Everything you are for empowers you.

Wayne Dyer

Conflict cannot survive without your participation.

Wayne Dyer

Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.

Wayne Dyer

It makes no sense to worry about things you have no control over because there’s nothing you can do about them, and why worry about things you do control? The activity of worrying keeps you immobilized.

Wayne Dyer

What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds.

Wayne Dyer

Self-worth comes from one thing – thinking that you are worthy.

Wayne Dyer

If you are living out of a sense of obligation you are slave.

Wayne Dyer

Transformation literally means going beyond your form.

Wayne Dyer

Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.

Wayne Dyer

Begin to see yourself as a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul.

Wayne Dyer

Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery.

Wayne Dyer

Deficiency motivation doesn’t work. It will lead to a life-long pursuit of try to fix me. Learn to appreciate what you have and where and who you are.

Wayne Dyer

When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.

Wayne Dyer

Maxim for life: You get treated in life the way you teach people to treat you.

Wayne Dyer

The components of anxiety, stress, fear, and anger do not exist independently of you in the world. They simply do not exist in the physical world, even though we talk about them as if they do.

Wayne Dyer

Successful people make money. It’s not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do.

Wayne Dyer

Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.

Wayne Dyer

Our intention creates our reality.

Wayne Dyer

Relationships based on obligation lack dignity.

Wayne Dyer

Only the insecure strive for security.

Wayne Dyer

You can never get enough of what you don’t want.

Wayne Dyer

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Wayne Dyer

We are Divine enough to ask and we are important enough to receive.

Wayne Dyer

There’s nothing wrong with anger provided you use it constructively.

Wayne Dyer

What comes out when life squeezes you? When someone hurts or offends you? If anger, pain and fear come out of you, it’s because that’s what’s inside.

Wayne Dyer

You can’t choose up sides on a round world.

Wayne Dyer

The last suit that you wear, you don’t need any pockets.

Wayne Dyer

Our lives are a sum total of the choices we have made.

Wayne Dyer

Anything you really want, you can attain, if you really go after it.

Wayne Dyer

You are important enough to ask and you are blessed enough to receive back.

Wayne Dyer

You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.

Wayne Dyer

Judgements prevent us from seeing the good that lies beyond appearances.

Wayne Dyer

I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.

Wayne Dyer

Simply put, you believe that things or people make you unhappy, but this is not accurate. You make yourself unhappy.

Wayne Dyer

It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have the power to choose either.

Wayne Dyer

Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.

Wayne Dyer

Live one day at a time emphasizing ethics rather than rules.

Wayne Dyer

There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there’s only scarcity of resolve to make it happen.

Wayne Dyer

Everything is perfect in the universe – even your desire to improve it.

Wayne Dyer

Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.

Wayne Dyer

You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.

Wayne Dyer

Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it’s always your choice.

Wayne Dyer

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.

Wayne Dyer

Give yourself a gift of five minutes of contemplation in awe of everything you see around you. Go outside and turn your attention to the many miracles around you. This five-minute-a-day regimen of appreciation and gratitude will help you to focus your life in awe.

Wayne Dyer

Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world.

Wayne Dyer

How am I going to live today in order to create the tomorrow I’m committed to?

Tony Robbins

Successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers.

Tony Robbins

The only limit to your impact is your imagination and commitment.

Tony Robbins

Using the power of decision gives you the capacity to get past any excuse to change any and every part of your life in an instant.

Tony Robbins

Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.

Tony Robbins

Whatever happens, take responsibility.

Tony Robbins

You always succeed in producing a result.

Tony Robbins

I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.

Tony Robbins

If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you’ll achieve the same results.

Tony Robbins

Success comes from taking the initiative and following up… persisting… eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action could you take today to produce a new momentum toward success in your life?

Tony Robbins

Live with passion!

Tony Robbins

What we can or cannot do, what we consider possible or impossible, is rarely a function of our true capability. It is more likely a function of our beliefs about who we are.

Tony Robbins

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.

Tony Robbins

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.

Tony Robbins

My definition of success is to live your life in a way that causes you to feel a ton of pleasure and very little pain – and because of your lifestyle, have the people around you feel a lot more pleasure than they do pain.

Tony Robbins

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.

Tony Robbins

There is no such thing as failure. There are only results.

Tony Robbins

Want to learn to eat a lot? Here it is: Eat a little. That way, you will be around long enough to eat a lot.

Tony Robbins

People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals – that is, goals that do not inspire them.

Tony Robbins

We aren’t in an information age, we are in an entertainment age.

Tony Robbins

It not knowing what to do, it’s doing what you know.

Tony Robbins

The meeting of preparation with opportunity generates the offspring we call luck.

Tony Robbins

Passion is the genesis of genius.

Tony Robbins

The truth is that we can learn to condition our minds, bodies, and emotions to link pain or pleasure to whatever we choose. By changing what we link pain and pleasure to, we will instantly change our behaviors.

Tony Robbins

When people are like each other they tend to like each other.

Tony Robbins

Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.

Tony Robbins

It’s not the events of our lives that shape us, but our beliefs as to what those events mean.

Tony Robbins

Surmounting difficulty is the crucible that forms character.

Tony Robbins

For changes to be of any true value, they’ve got to be lasting and consistent.

Tony Robbins

We are the only beings on the planet who lead such rich internal lives that it’s not the events that matter most to us, but rather, it’s how we interpret those events that will determine how we think about ourselves and how we will act in the future.

Tony Robbins

You see, it’s never the environment; it’s never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events – how we interpret them – that shapes who we are today and who we’ll become tomorrow.

Tony Robbins

There’s always a way – if you’re committed.

Tony Robbins

There’s no abiding success without commitment.

Tony Robbins

Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.

Tony Robbins

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If you don’t, life controls you.

Tony Robbins

I’ve come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.

Tony Robbins

If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten.

Tony Robbins

To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others.

Tony Robbins

Most people have no idea of the giant capacity we can immediately command when we focus all of our resources on mastering a single area of our lives.

Tony Robbins

In life you need either inspiration or desperation.

Tony Robbins

The higher your energy level, the more efficient your body The more efficient your body, the better you feel and the more you will use your talent to produce outstanding results.

Tony Robbins

Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year – and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade!

Tony Robbins

The path to success is to take massive, determined action.

Tony Robbins

Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment.

Tony Robbins

We will act consistently with our view of who we truly are, whether that view is accurate or not.

Tony Robbins

It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute… that gives meaning to our lives.

Tony Robbins

Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.

Tony Robbins

The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives.

Tony Robbins

A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken a new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.

Tony Robbins

In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.

Tony Robbins

Remember, a real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.

Tony Robbins

We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.

Tony Robbins

You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action.

Tony Robbins

I advise you to say your dream is possible and then overcome all inconveniences, ignore all the hassles and take a running leap through the hoop, even if it is in flames.

Les Brown

Today, you expand or you are expendable.

Les Brown

You don’t get what you want in life. You get who you are!

Les Brown

I think of myself as a catalyst of action and a messenger of hope, turning people onto themselves and turning people onto their dreams.

Les Brown

Easy is not an option!

Les Brown

In every day, there are 1,440 minutes. That means we have 1,440 daily opportunities to make a positive impact.

Les Brown

The best gifts are those we not only cherish but put to use.

Les Brown

Make each day count by setting specific goals to succeed, then putting forth every effort to exceed your own expectations.

Les Brown

We were all born with a certain degree of power. The key to success is discovering this innate power and using it daily to deal with whatever challenges come our way.

Les Brown

Our ability to handle life’s challenges is a measure of our strength of character.

Les Brown

Where do we enroll in Life 101? Where are the classes dealing with the loss of a job, the death of a loved one, the failure of a relationship? Unfortunately, those lessons are mostly learned through trial by fire and the school of hard knocks.

Les Brown

We are living in very challenging times. Pressured in the workplace and stressed out at home, people are trying to make sense of their lives.

Les Brown

Shoot for the moon and if you miss you will still be among the stars.

Les Brown

Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears.

Les Brown

Review your goals twice every day in order to be focused on achieving them.

Les Brown

Anytime you suffer a setback or disappointment, put your head down and plow ahead.

Les Brown

The only limits to the possibilities in your life tomorrow are the buts you use today.

Les Brown

Your goals are the road maps that guide you and show you what is possible for your life.

Les Brown

You need to make a commitment, and once you make it, then life will give you some answers.

Les Brown

There are winners, there are losers and there are people who have not yet learned how to win.

Les Brown

A lot of people do not muster the courage to live their dreams because they are afraid to die.

Les Brown

Your smile will give you a positive countenance that will make people feel comfortable around you.

Les Brown

You cannot expect to achieve new goals or move beyond your present circumstances unless you change.

Les Brown

Life takes on meaning when you become motivated, set goals and charge after them in an unstoppable manner.

Les Brown

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.

Les Brown

When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. Let your reason get you back up.

Les Brown

If you set goals and go after them with all the determination you can muster, your gifts will take you places that will amaze you.

Les Brown

If you are carrying strong feelings about something that happened in your past, they may hinder your ability to live in the present.

Les Brown

If you put yourself in a position where you have to stretch outside your comfort zone, then you are forced to expand your consciousness.

Les Brown

Your ability to communicate is an important tool in your pursuit of your goals, whether it is with your family, your co-workers or your clients and customers.

Les Brown

Just because Fate doesn’t deal you the right cards, it doesn’t mean you should give up. It just means you have to play the cards you get to their maximum potential.

Les Brown

Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it. Your motivation must be absolutely compelling in order to overcome the obstacles that will invariably come your way.

Les Brown

Other people’s opinion of you does not have to become your reality.

Les Brown

We must look for ways to be an active force in our own lives. We must take charge of our own destinies, design a life of substance and truly begin to live our dreams.

Les Brown

It takes someone with a vision of the possibilities to attain new levels of experience. Someone with the courage to live his dreams.

Les Brown

In day-to-day commerce, television is not so much interested in the business of communications as in the business of delivering audiences to advertisers. People are the merchandise, not the shows. The shows are merely the bait.

Les Brown

Unlike productions in the other arts, all television shows are born to destroy two other shows.

Les Brown

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.

Les Brown

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.

Les Brown

Honor your commitments with integrity.

Les Brown

All of us need to grow continuously in our lives.

Les Brown

You must remain focused on your journey to greatness.

Les Brown

Life has no limitations, except the ones you make.

Les Brown

Goals help you channel your energy into action.

Les Brown

Forgive those who have hurt you.

Les Brown

Help others achieve their dreams and you will achieve yours.

Les Brown

Don’t let someone else’s opinion of you become your reality.

Les Brown

You take on the responsibility for making your dream a reality.

Les Brown

Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.

Les Brown

If you fall, fall on your back. If you can look up, you can get up.

Les Brown

Don’t bring your need to the marketplace, bring your skill. If you don’t feel well, tell your doctor, but not the marketplace. If you need money, go to the bank, but not the marketplace.

Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don’t fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.

Money is usually attracted, not pursued.

Part of your heritage in this society is the opportunity to become financially independent.

Some people plant in the spring and leave in the summer. If you’re signed up for a season, see it through. You don’t have to stay forever, but at least stay until you see it through.

Jim Rohn

Your philosophy determines whether you will go for the disciplines or continue the errors.

Jim Rohn

Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become.

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.

If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized – never knowing.

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.

Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don’t go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won’t laugh at you.

Whoever renders service to many puts himself in line for greatness – great wealth, great return, great satisfaction, great reputation, and great joy.

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.

To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, who could I ask?

Winners are people with definite purpose in life.

Life is not accountable to us. We are accountable to life.

You must accept responsibility for your actions, but not the credit for your achievements.

Denis Waitley

Life is inherently risky. There is only one big risk you should avoid at all costs, and that is the risk of doing nothing.

Denis Waitley

No man or woman is an island. To exist just for yourself is meaningless. You can achieve the most satisfaction when you feel related to some greater purpose in life, something greater than yourself.

Denis Waitley

You must look within for value, but must look beyond for perspective.
