The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari


Excerpts:

Great dreamers’ dreams are never fulfilled, they are always transcended.
-ALFRED LORD WHITEHEAD

I am an artist at living – my work of art is my life – SUZUKI

Most people live – whether physically, intellectually or morally – in a very restricted circle of their potential being. We all have reservoirs of life to draw upon of which we do not dream. – WILLIAM JAMES



How can you really know the joy of being on the summit of the mountain unless you have first visited the lowest valley?

To savor the good one must know the bad?

Remember that the laws of nature always ensure that when one door closes another opens.



When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary projects, all of your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person than you ever dreamed yourself to be.

Winston Churchill said that ‘the price of greatness is responsibility over each of your thoughts.’

Then you will install the vibrant mindset you are looking for. Remember, the mind truly is like any other muscle in your body. Use it or lose it.

Calculated risk taking will pay huge dividends.

You truly cannot afford the luxury of even one negative thought.

Einstein said that imagination is more important than knowledge.

Fatigue dominates the lives of those who are living without direction and dreams.

Only those who seek shall find.

There are no mistakes – only lessons. See setbacks as opportunities for personal expansion and spiritual growth.

The secret of happiness is simple: find out what you truly love to do and then direct all of you energy towards doing it. Once you do this abundance flows into your life and all your desires are filled with ease and grace.


Trust yourself. Create the kind of life you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into the flames of achievement.- FOSTER C. McCLELLAN

Benjamin Disraeli said: “The secret of success is constancy of purpose”.


The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

A day without laughter or a day without love was a day without life.

A burning sense of passion is the most potent fuel for your dreams.

Good people strengthen themselves ceaselessly – CONFUCIUS


Epictetus said: ‘No man is free who is not a master of himself.”

The only limits on your life are those that you set yourself.

Luck favours the prepared mind.

When you erase fear from your mind, you start to look younger and your health becomes more vibrant.

One must live a life of moderation and do nothing to extremes.

Mistakes are part of life and essential for growth.
