More quotes by Jack Canfield
Most of life is on-the-job training. Some of the most important things can only be learned in the process of doing them. You do something and you get feedback - about what works and what doesn't.

If something doesn't turn out as planned, you will ask yourself, 'How did I create that? What was I thinking? What were my beliefs? What did I say or not say? What did I do or not do to create that result? How did I get the other person to act that way? What do I need to do differently next time to get the result I want?'

It's the feeling that really creates the attraction, not just the picture or the thought. A lot of people think, “If I think the positive thoughts, or if I visualize having what I want, that will be enough.” But if you're doing that and still not feeling abundant, or feeling loving or joyful, then it doesn't create the power of the attraction.

The most successful people I know create superior results yet still maintain a balance among work, family, and recreation in their lives.

Mother Teresa was brilliant. She said, “I will never attend an anti-war rally. If you have a peace rally, invite me.” She knew. She understood the secret. Look what she manifested in the world.

Clarify your purpose. What is the why behind everything you do? When we know this in life or design it is very empowering and the path is clear.
Jack Canfield
It takes risks to achieve. It's often scary. It requires something you didn't know before or a skill you didn't have before. But in the end, it's worth it.
Jack Canfield
Everything you should be an expression of your purpose. If an activity doesn't fit that formula, you wouldn't work on it. Period.

There's so much information on the internet. But people don't need more information, they need 'aha moments,' they need awareness, they need things that actually shift and change them.

Pay attention to how you are feeling, and keep your compass heading set for JOY!
