The monk who sold his Ferrari. Robin S. Sharma. Selected quotes XVII

-The most productive people in this world have cultivated the habit of doing the things that less productive people don't like doing, even though they too might not like doing them.
-Those who are masters of their time live simple lives. Lasting happiness could be reached only by those who were effective and set definite aims for themselves, living a life rich with accomplishment and contribution did not have to come through the sacrifice of peace of mind.
-Too many people are dreaming of some magical rose garden on the horizon rather than enjoying the one growing in our back yards.
-Laughter opens your heart and soothes your soul. No one should take life so seriously that they forget to laugh at themselves.
-The best time to plant a tree is was forty years ago. The second best time is today. Don't waste even on minute of your day. Develop a deathbed mentality.
-Push yourself to do more and to experience more. Expand your dreams. Don't accept a life of mediocrity when you hold such infinite potential within the fortress of your mind. Dare to tap into your greatness. This is your birthright.
-Act as if failure is impossible, and your success will be assured.
-Wipe out every thought of not achieving your objectives, whether they are material or spiritual and set no limits on the workings of your imagination. Never be a prisoner of your past. Become the architect of your future. You will never be the same.
-We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
-I'm no longer in the world. The world is in me.
-No matter how big a house you have or how slick a car you drive, the only thing you can take with you at the end of your life is your conscience. Listen to your conscience. Let it guide you. It knows what is right. It will tell you that your calling in life is ultimately selfless service to others in some form or another.
