Quotes

* Things happen for a reason.  There are no accidents.
* When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.

It is not a success that brings you happiness (the Myth).  Rather, it is happiness that brings you success. (the Truth)  -Andrew Matthews

A lot of times it is counter the “usual logic”.  Similarly, from “The Confidence Gap” book I read, it is by doing things we become confident, not after becoming confident then we start to do things.

Ask, and it shall be given,
Seek, and you shall find,
Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
  -Matthew 7:7

Beautifully explains the meaning behind this simple word: ask.  Note the gems hidden in passive voices in the 1st and 3rd phrase 🙂

Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve!  -Napolean Hill

The power of mind summed up beautifully in one sentence.

Everyday in everyway, I am getting better and better!  -Émile Coué

Another powerful affirmation statement that can be practised as many times as possible to work its magic.

To realize one’s destiny is a person’s only real obligation. All things are one. When you want something; all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.  -Paulo Coelho

I would say the sequel is: What you need to do is calm your mind, take a deep breath, and make the first step … then step by step.  Follow your heart, and you will achieve it with all the support and guidance along the way.  Don’t forget to enjoy the scenery!

By me, Patrick Ho

• When the minds are aligned, life will be at ease.
• 80% of success comes from 20% of right habits; 80% of problems come from 20% of wrong mindsets
• Your perception creates your reality; you can redefine your reality with new perception, at will, and with ease
• Don’t slip into autopilot mode unconsciously; take back control and put yourself into driver seat again, today!
