More quotes by Jack Canfield
To achieve your dreams, work is required. Suffering is optional.
Jack Canfield
Don't waste your life believing you can't.
Jack Canfield
If you want something different, you are going to have to do something different.
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 you don't do anything for fear of doing it wrong, poorly, or badly, you never get any feedback, and therefore you never get to improve.
Jack Canfield
I've always believed in God. I remember once a guy asked me what it was like to be self-employed. I said, I'm not self employed. I work for God. The pay is good He works me hard.
Jack Canfield
If you really stop resisting someone or stop judging them or stop being afraid of them or stop imagining they're going to do something negative they haven't done yet, it changes the energetic field, it changes the relationship, and that person - not always, but often - will shift their behavior because of what you've done.
Jack Canfield
I don't blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don't have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things.
Jack Canfield
As for real chicken soup, I have it once or twice a week.

The things that bring you the greatest joy are in alignment with your purpose.
Jack Canfield
True freedom is an inward state of being. Once it is attained, no situation in the world can bind one or limit one's freedom.
Jack Canfield
Anything that's motivated from fear will ultimately take you down the wrong road and lead you in a cul de sac, anything motivated from purpose, from joy, and from love will take you on an evolutionary path to greater and greater happiness.
Jack Canfield
Now, when anything 'bad' happens, I remember that everything that ever happens to me has within it the seeds of something better. I look for the upside rather than the downside. I ask myself, 'Where's the greater benefit in this event?'
Jack Canfield
Success depends on getting good at saying no without feeling guilty. You cannot get ahead with your own goals if you are always saying yes to someone else's projects. You can only get ahead with your desired lifestyle if you are focused on the things that will produce that lifestyle.
Jack Canfield
Success is the ability to do what you want, whenever you want, as often as you want.
Jack Canfield
Your habits determine your outcomes.
Jack Canfield
Making mistakes, getting it almost right, and experimenting to see what happens are all part of the process of eventually getting it right.
Jack Canfield
Greater self-esteem produces greater success, and greater success produces more high self-esteem, so it keeps on spiraling up.
Jack Canfield
You and you alone are responsible for taking actions to create the life of your dreams. Nobody else can (or will) do it for you.
Jack Canfield
I like Dr. Daniel Amen's 18/40/60 Rule: When you're 18, you worry about what everybody is thinking of you when you're 40, you don't give a darn what anybody thinks of you when you're 60, you realize nobody's been thinking about you at all.
Jack Canfield
What others think about you is none of your business.
