The thing is to get the work done.

Take stock of your fears now and see how many of them are senseless. If you are honest with yourself you will probably find most of them are groundless.

Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be happy. Well, that is doubtful. So get as much happiness out of what you are doing as you can and don't put off being happy until some future date.

Would you sell both your eyes for a million dollars...or your two legs...or your hands...or your hearing? Add up what you do have, and you'll find you won't sell them for all the gold in the world. The best things in life are yours, if you can appreciate them.

Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.

A good deed, "said the prophet Mohammed, "is one that brings a smile of joy to the face of another." Why will doing a good deed every day produce such astounding efforts on the doer? Because trying to please others will cause us to stop thinking of ourselves: the very thing that produces worry and fear and melancholia.

It isn't work that makes you tired, it's your mental attitude.
