ARISE ENJOY HAPPINESS
• To learn to walk, we must risk falling over.
• To make a dollar, we must risk losing it.
• In loving and caring, we risk breaking our hearts.
• Getting a job is a risk. Crossing the road is a risk. Eating in
the restaurant is a risk. Starting a family is a risk.
• Life is a risk. Winners take more risk than
losers. That is why they win so much.
Necessarily then, winners lose more than
losers, but they are playing so often that their
wins add up.
We have a choice between
living and merely existing.
COMPLIMENTS
Ever notice how good you feel when you
give a compliment?
Even if people are awkward in receiving
them, they appreciate them.
When we make it a habit to GIVE genuine
compliments, we’ll always be looking out
for the good in people.
Two Happiness TrapsWe postpone our happiness - “ I’ll be
happy when....”( When the house is paid
off, when we go to Phuket, Bali, or Hawaii,
when I find a better job...)
We look back to the past and say, “If I
have known today was going to be so awful,
I would have been happy yesterday.”
HAPPINESS is not a when - Happiness is
a now.
Work!Lots of people will tell you , “I’ll be happier
if my job was easier.” But when work gets
easier, they quit, and look for another
challenge.
The truth is, we love challenge. Let’s stop
kidding ourselves! Nearly every job is
repetitious.
Often, the secret to enjoying a job is not
to change your job but to change your
attitude.
Law of ProgressEverything has ups and downs - nothing travels
in straight lines. This applies to your own
progress in any project. Keep your eye on
your target, keep putting in the effort and you
reach your target despite the ups and downs.
Successful people realise that they reach their
goals by continuously correcting. We get off
course, correct, and get back on course.
Ships do it. Rockets and missiles do it.
Correct. Correct. Correct.
The key to happiness is not that
you never get upset, frustrated
or irritated.
It is how quickly you decide to
snap out of it.
Learning from ChildrenSpend time with children. Learn more about
laughter, spontaneity, curiosity, acceptance,
resilience, trust, determination, and your
imagination.
They are here to teach us!
Happiness is not dependent on your circumstances or your bank balance.
Happiness is a daily decision.
