My definition of success is "the fulfillment of your soul's purpose."
I believe if everyone fulfilled their deepest life purpose, the world would work perfectly.
One of the main strategies of the successful is that they constantly seek guidance from experts in their field.
The best way to establish rapport with people and to win them over to your side is to be truly interested in them, to listen with the intention of really learning about them. When the person feels that you are really interested in getting to know them and their feelings, they will open up to you and share their true feelings with you much more quickly.
What if you, too, were to greet every interaction in your life with the question 'What's the potential opportunity that this is?'
When you're connected to a source and to each other through conversation, through making love, through meditation, playing games with your kids, all that stuff, then your self-esteem's going to go up.
I worked from 10 p.m. until 1 a.m. every night for a year to write the first Chicken Soup for the Soul book,
The Law of Attraction allows for infinite possibilities, infinite abundance & infinite joy. It knows no order of difficulty.
The Law of Probabilities: the more things you try, the more likely one of them will work.
It takes risks to achieve. It's often scary. It requires something you didn't know before or a skill you didn't have before. But in the end, it's worth it.
People who don't make goals end up working for those who do.
True freedom is an inward state of being. Once it is attained, no situation in the world can bind one or limit one's freedom.
It's the feeling that really creates the attraction, not just the picture or the thought. A lot of people think, “If I think the positive thoughts, or if I visualize having what I want, that will be enough.” But if you're doing that and still not feeling abundant, or feeling loving or joyful, then it doesn't create the power of the attraction.
Mother Teresa was brilliant. She said, “I will never attend an anti-war rally. If you have a peace rally, invite me.” She knew. She understood the secret. Look what she manifested in the world.
