Happiness: "You Bring Your Own Weather To The Picnic."

I grasped two things: I wasn't as happy as I could be, and my life wasnt going to change unless I made it change.

It's so easy to wish that we'd made an effort in the past, so that we'd happily be enjoying the benefit now, but when now is the time when that effort must be made, as it always is, that prospect is much less inviting.

Forbearance is a form of generosity.

I can build a happy life only on the foundation of my own nature.

Sometimes I think it's easier to think about being happier, for what ever that means to you then worrying about what is happiness and what would life be if I finally achieved this ultimate happiness?

Self-awareness is a key to self-mastery
