- "Finish each day and be done with it." ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
- "Leave people better than you found them." ― Marvin J. Ashton
- "No amount of anxiety makes any difference to anything that is going to happen." ― Alan Watts
- "Stop saying sorry. Say thank you instead. When you say, “sorry for being a jerk” the other person is forced to either call you a jerk or say it wasnt a big deal. Instead, say “thank you for being so patient with me” so the other person has a reason to say they love you."
- "To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself into a victim. When you speak out, you are in your power. So change the situation by taking action or by speaking out if necessary or possible; leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness." ― Eckhart Tolle
- "Instead of saying “I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels. Often, that’s a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don’t want to. But other things are harder. Try it: “I’m not going to edit your résumé, sweetie, because it’s not a priority.” “I don’t go to the doctor because my health is not a priority.” If these phrases don’t sit well, that’s the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don’t like how we’re spending an hour, we can choose differently." ― Laura Vanderkam
- "Every day above earth is a good day." ― Ernest Hemingway
- "Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone." ― Pablo Picasso
- "Refuse to inherit dysfunction. Learn new ways of living instead of repeating what you’ve lived through." ― Thema Davis
- "I was only able to get over my past when I decided I was going to." ― Corallie Buchanan
- "These mountains that you are carrying, you were only supposed to climb." ― Najwa Zebian
- "Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life, I tell them that absolutely the most important thing was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming." — Anthony Robbins
- "If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done." ― Thomas Jefferson
- "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." — Will Durant
- "If we don't plan and act on the life of our dreams we end up settling for a life that happens to us."
