For a person to build a rich and rewarding life for himself, there are certain qualities and bits of knowledge that he needs to acquire. But there are also things โ harmful attitudes, superstitions, emotions โ that he needs to chip away. A person needs to chip away everything that doesn't look like the person he or she most wants to become.
Earl NightingaleIt is in the expectations of happiness that much of happiness itself is found. And it takes courage to expect happiness.
Earl NightingaleEverything that's really worthwhile in life came to us free - our minds, our souls, our bodies, our hopes, our dreams, our ambitions, our intelligence, our love of family and children and friends and country.
Earl NightingaleA great attitude is not the result of success; success is the result of a great attitude.
Earl NightingaleEverything in the world we want to do or get done, we must do with and through people. Every dollar we will ever earn must come from people. The person we love, and with whom we want to spend the rest of our life, is a human being with whom we must interact. Our children are individuals, each different from any other person who ever lived. And what affects them most is our attitude-the loving kindness they see and feel whenever we are around them. If you'll begin to develop and maintain an attitude that says yes to life and the world, you'll be astonished at the changes you'll see.
