"From television and Internet alone, we’re exposed to more stimuli in a week than our Paleolithic ancestors were exposed to in a lifetime."
— Albert Villoldo, One Spirit Medicine
"Every thought-seed sown or allowed to fall into the mind, and to take root there, produces its own, blossoming sooner or later into act, and bearing its own fruitage of opportunity and circumstance. Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit."
— James Allen, As a Man Thinketh
"Creating structure—by developing what I call the rules for your life—is the most important step in becoming more productive and less stressed. Structure is essential to earning your freedom. Your rules will lead you out of temptation, help you make the right decisions instinctively, and fuel your willpower to deal with the chaos of the day."
— Craig Ballantyne, The Perfect Day Formula
"Each evening, compose a list of things you will do the next day. This prepares you for a productive morning and a successful day."
— Brian Tracy, Master Your Time, Master Your Life
"Focus your finest efforts on the one or two goals that will make all the difference, instead of giving mediocre effort to dozens of goals. Execution starts with focus."
— The 4DX Guys
"...information consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it."
— Herbert Benson
"Finally, surveys show, and large-scale randomized interventions confirm, that exercise may very well be the most effective instant happiness booster of all activities."
— Sonja Lyubomirsky, The How of Happiness
"Everything that happens to us—good and bad—is our personal responsibility. We can blame no one else. These are the choices we’ve made—this is the life we’re living. We will accept the consequences of our actions."
— Craig Ballantyne, The Perfect Day Formula
"Each night, plan your tomorrow, and you will wake up with a clear direction and purpose."
— Michael Hyatt, Free to Focus
“Habits are important. Up to 90 percent of our everyday behavior is based on habit. Nearly all of what we do each day, every day, is simply habit. We all have good habits and bad habits, but if nearly 90 percent of what we do each day is habit, the only way to effect real change in our lives is to effect real change in our habits. The good news is that we can learn to effectively change bad habits and establish good habits that will make us more successful.”
- Jack D. Hodge, The Power of Habit
"Every single thing you want in life is on the other side of something you don’t want to do."
- Sahil Bloom
"If there’s no challenge for me I cannot become stronger. I cannot grow."
— Steve Chandler, Time Warrior
"Do fewer things. You will never get caught up. You will never be able to do everything on your list. To get control of your life you must stop doing an enormous number of small things. Do more important things. Do the top three tasks that you have identified, and nothing else, until you have no more of those major tasks to do. Do your most important tasks more of the time, preferably all day long. The more time you spend doing the most important things, the more productive you will be on the outside and the happier you will feel on the inside."
— Brian Tracy, Time Management
"Every statement we make to ourselves, enters into the mental bank account of our confidence and either drives it upward or drags it down."
— Dr. Nate Zinsser, The Confident Mind
"Anytime you are in the presence of adversity, ask yourself, ‘What is the one thing I can do that could make this better?’ Force yourself to give a substantive answer. (“I don’t know” is not an answer that will help.) You do not need perfection; all you need is improvement. Keep asking yourself the question until your problem is no longer an issue."
— Jason Selk, 10 Minute Toughness
"Extraordinary results are directly determined by how narrow you can make your focus."
- Gary Keller, The ONE Thing
"Good habits and virtues are eternal joy-making qualities."
— Paramahansa Yogananda, Living Fearlessly
