Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for
something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future--Think how
really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or
with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed, savored.

We must be the epitome-the embodiment-of success. We must radiate

The first principle of ethical power is Purpose... By purpose, I
don't mean your objective or intention-something toward which you are
always striving. Purpose is something bigger. It is the picture you have
of yourself-the kind of person you want to be or the kind of life you want
to lead.

Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other
discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life
unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away
from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the
end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy,
and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for
him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
