You have chosen the pathway to your present destination. The responsibility for your situation is yours.

My life - my personality, my habits, even my speech - is a combination of the books I choose to read, the people I choose to listen to, and the thoughts I choose to tolerate in my mind

Your big picture will never be a masterpiece if you ignore the tiny brushstrokes. You're trying so hard to be successful that true success is eluding you.

When you know that everything matters—that every move counts as much as any other—you will begin living a life of permanent purpose.

I believe that any type of education can be great, but an education about ourselves can create something wonderful. I am a comedian, but people have called me a motivational speaker. I don't really consider myself that at all.

The very beating of your heart has meaning and purpose. Your actions have value far greater than silver or gold.
