to accept conditions as they exist,
or accept the responsibility for changing them."

The Masterpiece of Life
"You want to become aware of your thoughts,
you want to choose your thoughts carefully
and you want to have fun with this,
because you are the masterpiece of your own life.
You are the Michelangelo of your own life.
The David that you are sculpting is you.
And you do it with your thoughts"
Joe Vitale
Take Hold of Life
"Take hold of your own life.
See that the whole existence is celebrating.
These trees are not serious,
these birds are not serious.
The rivers and the oceans are wild,
and everywhere there is fun...
everywhere there is joy and delight.
Watch existence,
listen to the existence and become part of it."
Osho
The Value of Life

but in the use we make of them."

Play and Enjoy Life

Every single day do something that makes your heart sing.”

The Good Life
"Let's choose today to quench our thirst for the 'good life'
we think others lead by acknowledging
the good that already exists in our lives.
We can then offer the universe the gift of our grateful hearts."
Sarah Ban Breathnach
The Purpose of Life
“The purpose of life is to live it,
to taste experience to the utmost,
to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
The Measure of a Life

is not its duration, but its donation."

If we can't take responsibility for it,
we'll always be its victim."
Richard Bach
Errors
“All of your errors have not built a wall against your success.
They have paved your way to it.”
Alan Cohen
Worth Doing
“Anything that's worth doing
is also worth the time and effort spent to establish a workable plan.
Plan to succeed, and you will.”
Ralph Marston
Midlife
"Midlife is not a crisis;
it’s a time of rebirth.
It’s not a time to accept your death;
it’s a time to accept your life—
and to finally, truly live it,
as you and you alone know deep in your heart
it was meant to be lived."
Marianne Williamson
Real Integrity
“Real integrity is doing the right thing,
knowing that nobody's going to know whether
you did it or not.”

They like the results they get by doing what they don't necessarily enjoy."
