Beliefs are so powerful because they dictate our efforts and actions.

Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its finite resources as you process the world.

We not only need to work happy, we need to work at being happy.

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.

Waiting to be happy limits our brain's potential for success, whereas cultivating positive brains makes us more motivated, efficient, resilient, creative, and productive, which drives performance upward.

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