The Monk Who Sold his Ferrari

An average person runs 60000 thoughts through his mind. 95% are the same ones you thought the day before, most of them negative. The Tyranny of impoverished thinking. Bad mental habits. These people have fallen prey to become captives of their pasts.
What separates upbeat and optimistic people from those who are consistently miserable is how the circumstances of life are interpreted and processed. There are no mistakes or negative experiences in life, only opportunities to learn and grow. From struggle comes strength.

More often than not, we chase after the big pleasures in life and miss out on the little ones.
Stop spending so much time making a living, spend more time creating a life.
We have had dreams. We have had nightmares. We overcome the nightmares because of our dreams.

The mind is a wonderful servant but terrible master. Use it or lose it.
Your thoughts form the world. Your quality of life boils down to the richness of your thoughts.

Happiness comes when you find something you truly love to do and channel all your energy towards it. Success, like happiness, cannot be pursued. It must be ensued.

Fatigue is a creation of the mind. Fatigue dominates the lives of those who are living without direction and dreams. It is a bad mental creation by your mind, cultivated to act as a clutch when you are performing a tedious task.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you is nothing when compared to what lies within you.

It is important to build strength of character, develop mental toughness and live with courage. These 3 attributes would lead one not only to a virtuous life but to a life filled with achievement, satisfaction and inner peace.
Courage is a quality worth cultivating and it pays huge dividends over the long run.

“The only limits on your life are those that you set yourself. Step out of your comfort zone and explore the unknown to liberate your true human potential. This is the first step towards self-mastery and mastery over every other circumstance in your life.”
