If you have not taken the time to define what happiness means to you, what have your spent your whole life pursuing?
To me, living in the present means being aware of your conscious choice to focus on the past, present or future - it is not necessarily having to focus on the present.
Most of us are consumed with our own thoughts and desires and are not always thinking about what other people may want. This is not necessarily being egocentric; it is just being human.
Every minute you spend in your life is either spent bringing you closer to your goals or moving you away from your goals.
You are not, nor ever will be, better than anyone else besides the person you are now.
Every day, people settle for less than they deserve. They are only partially living or at best living a partial life. Every human being has the potential for greatness.
A good leader is one who can tell another how to reach his or her potential; a great leader is one who can help another discover this potential for him or herself.
Not being in tune with your customers is like living in an alternate reality; the way you think your customers feel about your product is not always the same as what your customers really think about your product.
Faked enthusiasm is worse than bad acting - it is bad acting with the intent to deceive.
If you are going to ask yourself life-changing questions, be sure to do something with the answers.
Be friendly to everyone. Those who deserve it the least need it the most.
The secret to having everything you want out of life is the realization that you really don't want most of the things you think you want.
Show interest in all people, not just those from whom you want something. Making people feel important and good about themselves is just the right thing to do.
The best way to lose a job is just not to care. When you do not care, it shows in everything you do.
One's work usually occupies more than half of one's waking life. Choosing work that does not bring happiness will lead to a life that is mostly disappointing.
Every economy is uncertain. Referring to this or any economy as 'uncertain' is an unnecessary and pessimistic redundancy.
Value people on their potential, not on their history.
