More quotes by Earl Nightingale
Most people tiptoe their way through life, hoping they make it safely to death.
Earl Nightingale
It is our attitude toward life that determines life's attitude toward us. We get back what we put out.
Earl Nightingale
Goals reflect your choice of destination.
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
Don't take the attitude of waiting for people to be nice to you - be nice to them. Don't sit in front of a cold stove waiting for the heat. Put in the fuel. Act first.
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
We may avoid the laws of man, but there are greater laws that can't be broken.
Earl Nightingale
Security isn't what the wise person looks for - it's opportunity.
Earl Nightingale
Your rewards, all the years of your life, will be in precise proportion to your service. You are here to serve others, just as they serve you.
Earl Nightingale
Getting rich, or becoming outstanding at anything is all a matter of attitude. You must make up your mind once and for all - you commit yourself - and then just stay with it until you finally have what you set out to get.
Earl Nightingale
You can control your attitude. Set it each morning.
Earl Nightingale
But the 3% who have taken the time and exercised the discipline to decide on a destination and to chart a course sail straight and far across the deep oceans of life, reaching one port after another and accomplishing more in just a few years than the rest accomplish in a lifetime.
Earl Nightingale
We can let circumstances rule us, or we can take charge and rule our lives from within.
Earl Nightingale
Dream what you dare to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be.
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
It is in the expectations of happiness that much of happiness itself is found. And it takes courage to expect happiness.
Earl Nightingale
Don't concern yourself too much with how you are going to achieve your goal - leave that completely to a power greater than yourself. All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord, and at the right time.
Earl Nightingale
Self-pity is an acid which eats holes in happiness.
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
What's going on in the inside shows on the outside.
Earl Nightingale
