More quotes by Earl Nightingale
People are where they are because that is exactly where they really want to be - whether they will admit that or not.
Earl Nightingale
If a person is working toward a predetermined goal and knows where to go, then that person is successful. If a person does not know which direction they want to go in life, then that person is a failure.
Earl Nightingale
The key that unlocks energy is desire. It's also the key to a long and interesting life. If we expect to create any drive, any real force within ourselves, we have to get excited.
Earl Nightingale
The only thing about a man that is a man is his mind.
Earl Nightingale
Achievement requires more than a vision - it takes courage, resolve and tenacity. All you have got to do is plant that seed in your mind, care for it, work steadily toward your goal, and it will become a reality
Earl Nightingale
Don't wait for change. You change.
Earl Nightingale
We tend to minimize the things we can do, the goals we can accomplish, and for some equally strange reason we think other people can accomplish things that we cannot. I want you to understand that that is not true. You have deep reservoirs of talent and ability within you that you can bring to the surface and achieve all that you desire
Earl Nightingale
The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!
Earl Nightingale
Successful people form the habit of doing what failures don't like to do. They like the results they get by doing what they don't necessarily enjoy.
Earl Nightingale
Our rewards in life will always be in direct ratio to our service.
Earl Nightingale
Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.
Earl Nightingale
We may avoid the laws of man, but there are greater laws that can't be broken.
Earl Nightingale
Self-pity is an acid which eats holes in happiness.
Earl Nightingale
The only person who succeeds is the person who is progressively realizing a worthy ideal. That's the person who says, 'I'm going to become this' and then begins to work toward that goal
Earl Nightingale
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
Earl Nightingale
People with goals succeed because they know where they're going.
Earl Nightingale
We tend to live up to our expectations.
Earl Nightingale
You can measure opportunity with the same yardstick that measures the risk involved. They go together.
Earl Nightingale
If your attitude toward the world is good, you will obtain good results. If your attitude is excellent, excellent will your results.
Earl Nightingale
Always keep that happy attitude. Pretend that you are holding a beautiful fragrant bouquet.
Earl Nightingale
