Happiness
You have it easily in your power to increase the
sum total of this world’s happiness now.
How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation
to someone, who is lonely or discouraged.
Dale Carnegie
“He who depends on himself will attain the greatest
happiness”
Chinese Proverb
The trick is in what one
emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The
amount of work is the same.
Carlos Castaneda
Only those who have learned the power of sincere
and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment.
Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the
expansion of happiness.
Mahesh Yogi
Happiness
is like a butterfly.
The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you turn your attention to other things,
It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.
The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you turn your attention to other things,
It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.
Henry David Thoreau
To
find happiness, look halfway between too little and too much.
Ruskin
Bond - ‘The Book of Life’
May you have the wisdom
to be simple,
And the humour
to be happy !
Ruskin Bond - ‘The Book of Life’
"CHARACTER
OF A HAPPY LIFE"
How happy is he born and taught
That serveth not another's will;
Whose armour is his honest thought
And simple truth his utmost skill!
That serveth not another's will;
Whose armour is his honest thought
And simple truth his utmost skill!
Whose passions not his masters are,
Whose soul is still prepared for death,
Not tied unto the world with care
Of public fame, or private breath;
Who envies none that chance doth raise
Or vice; Who never understood
How deepest wounds are given by praise;
Nor rules of state, but rules of good:
Who hath his life from rumours freed,
Whose conscience is his strong retreat;
Whose state can neither flatterers feed,
Nor ruin make accusers great;
Who God doth late and early pray
More of His grace than gifts to lend;
And entertains the harmless day
With a well-chosen book or friend;
-- This man is freed from servile bands
Of hope to rise, or fear to fall;
Lord of himself, though not of lands;
And having nothing, yet hath all.
By Sir Henry
Wotton (1568-1639)
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
- MK Gandhi

Never search happiness in others,
this will make you feel alone..
But search it in yourself,
you will feel glad even you are left alone.

Success & Failure
Success & Failure
Thomas A. Edison
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
William Feather
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
High achievers
perceive risk as opportunity. They visualize the rewards of success rather than
the penalties of failure.
Dan Zadra
Success
is where preparation and opportunity meet.
Bobby Unser
Presence of mind and courage in distress
Are more than armies to procure success.
John Dryden

it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things
from his angle as well as your own."
Henry Ford
