Quote from The Dalai Lama:
I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.
Simimal Quotes:
Russell Simmons
The key ingredient to any kind of happiness or success is to never give less than your best.
Sean O'Casey
The secret to happiness is to find a congenial monotony.
Tony Robbins
Happily achieve instead of achieving to be happy.
Vernon Howard
Happiness is yours in the here and now. The painful states of anxiety and loneliness are abolished permanently. Financial affairs are not financial problems. You are at ease with yourself. You are not at the mercy of unfulfilled cravings. Confusion is replaced with clarity. There is a relieving answer to every tormenting question. You possess a True Self. Something can be done about every unhappy condition. While living in the world you can be inwardly detached from its sorrows to live with personal peace and sanity.
T. Harv Eker
Training and managing your own mind is the most important skill you could ever own, in terms of both happiness and success.
Aldous Huxley
Happiness is not achieved by the conscious pursuit of happiness; it is generally the byproduct of other activities.
Sanskrit Poem
Each today, well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and each tomorrow a vision of hope. Look, therefore, to this one day, for it and it alone is life.
Fanny Burney
Traveling is the ruin of all happiness! There's no looking at a building here after seeing Italy.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
If we agree that the bottom line of life is happiness, not success, then it makes perfect sense to say that it is the journey that counts, not reaching the destination.
Barbara De Angelis
You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.
Dan Millman
"Wake up! If you knew for certain you had a terminal illness--if you had little time left to live--you would waste precious little of it! Well, I'm telling you...you do have a terminal illness: It's called birth. You don't have more than a few years left. No one does! So be happy now, without reason--or you will never be at all."
