I can DO ANYTHING I want, but I can't DO EVERYTHING I want.
Gretchen Rubin
Your unhappiness doesn't help anyone else - and in fact, as I mentioned in another answer, happy people are more altruistically inclined. So happiness is not a selfish goal.
Gretchen Rubin

Gretchen Rubin

Gretchen Rubin

If you're a night person you can barely get out of bed in time to get to work or get your kids off to school. You're at your most productive and creative much later in the day, and for you, something like getting up early to go for a run is not going to set you up for success because you're not a morning person.
Gretchen Rubin

Gretchen Rubin

Gretchen Rubin
You really have to begin by figuring out what kind of person you are. The tip is to really take a look at yourself.
Gretchen Rubin
The belief that unhappiness is selfless and happiness is selfish is misguided. It's more selfless to act happy. It takes energy, generosity, and discipline to be unfailingly lighthearted.
Gretchen Rubin
Never start a sentence with the words 'No offense.
Gretchen Rubin
Nothing,' wrote Tolstoy, 'can make our life, or the lives of other people, more beautiful than perpetual kindness.
Gretchen Rubin
Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
Gretchen Rubin
Focus not on doing less or doing more but on doing what you value.
Gretchen Rubin
Creativity arises from a constant churn of ideas, and one of the easiest ways to encourage that fertile froth is to keep your mind engaged with your project. When you work regularly, inspiration strikes regularly.
Gretchen Rubin
One of the great joys of falling in love is the feeling that the most extraordinary person in the entire world has chosen you.
Gretchen Rubin
When you work regularly, inspiration strikes regularly.
Gretchen Rubin
What I found is, really, you always have to begin by nailing what is true about you, because something that works very well for someone else might not work for you at all.
Gretchen Rubin
I always say you can self-medicate through closet cleaning. Everyone knows that feeling of a clear surface, and how it makes you feel you can really focus and start your work.
