Spend two minutes a day scanning the world for three new things you're grateful for. And do that for 21 days, The reason why that's powerful is you're training your brain to scan the world in a new pattern, you're scanning for positives, instead of scanning for threats. It's the fastest way of teaching optimism.

The fastest way to disengage an employee is to tell him his work is meaningful only because of the paycheck.

When we encounter an unexpected challenge of threat the only way to save ourselves is to hold on tight to the people around us and not let go.

One of the most powerful forces in human nature is our belief that change is possible.

If we study what is merely average, we will remain merely average.

As we got more interested in time management and productivity, we lost the individual, and with that individual loss, we lost happiness as well. So I think the world has actually been malnourished as we've focused so much on productivity and ignored happiness and meaning to our own detriment.

..the more you believe in your own ability to success the more likely it is that you will.
