Earl Nightingale

“Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition will one day become a reality.”

“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 its at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.”

“We all walk in the dark and each of us must learn to turn on his or her own light.”

“A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds; it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow absent before the change.”

“Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations.”

“The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us on the path to its fulfillment.”

“Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal or ideal.”

“Always keep that happy attitude. Pretend that you are holding a beautiful fragrant bouquet.”

“We are at our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we've established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile.”

“Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.”

“Ideas are elusive, slippery things. Best to keep a pad of paper and a pencil at your bedside, so you can stab them during the night before they get away.”

“All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.”

“Executive ability is deciding quickly and getting somebody else to do the work.”
