When you stand still, you reject the struggle, and you refuse to change and grow. Ultimately, you reject fulfillment, happiness, the dance for joy and everything else that is eternally good.

More quotes by Matthew Kelly
Work-life balance was a mistake from the start. Because we don't really want balance. We want satisfaction.
Matthew Kelly
In fact, the more each person can remove his or her ego from the discussion and focus on the subject matter, the more fruitful the conversation will be for all involved.
Matthew Kelly
Discipline is the path to happiness.
Matthew Kelly
Whether you are sixteen or sixty, the rest of your life is ahead of you. You cannot change one moment of your past, but you can change your whole future. Now is your time.
Matthew Kelly
We are not here to solve the problems the problems are here to solve us.
Matthew Kelly
You cannot be healthy and happy without discipline. If you want to measure the level of happiness in your life, just measure the level of discipline in your life. You will never have more happiness than you have discipline.
Matthew Kelly
Our culture places a very high premium on self-expression, but is relatively disinterested in producing selves that are worth expressing.
Matthew Kelly
The challenge life presents to each of us is to become truly ourselves--not the self we have imagined or fantasized about, not the self that our friends want us to be, not the self our ego would have us be, but the self God has ordained us to be from before we were in our mother's womb.
Matthew Kelly
Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. Hope is one of those things that you can't buy, but that will be freely given to you if you ask. Hope is the one thing people cannot live without. Hope is a thing of beauty.
Matthew Kelly
Prayer is like a great love. When you start dating the silence can be awkward, but as you grow to know each other you can sit in silence for hours and just being with each other is a great comfort.
Matthew Kelly
Our lives change when our habits change.
Matthew Kelly
You will learn more from your friends than you ever will from books. Choose your friends wisely
Matthew Kelly
Freedom is not the ability to do whatever you want. Freedom is the strength of character to do what is good, true, noble, and right.
Matthew Kelly
Who you become is infinitely more important than what you do, or what you have.
Matthew Kelly
The beauty of Catholicism is every human being's right.
Matthew Kelly
Life is about love. It's about whom you love and whom you hurt. Life's about how you love yourself and how you hurt yourself. Life's about how you love and hurt the people close to you. Life is about how you love and hurt the people who just cross your path for a moment. Life is about love.
Matthew Kelly
When you voice your disagreement, begin by talking about what you have in common with the person you are arguing with. Too often we rush to judgment, race to argue, and overlook all the common ground we share.
Matthew Kelly
It has been my experience that nothing changes a person's life more than the discovery of one solitary truth: There is a meaning and purpose to life. More specifically: There is a meaning and purpose to your life.
Matthew Kelly
Anything and anyone that does not help you to become the best version of yourself is too small for you.
Matthew Kelly
On the one hand, we all want to be happy. On the other hand, we all know the things that make us happy. But we don't do those things. Why? Simple. We are too busy. Too busy doing what? Too busy trying to be happy. This is the paradox of happiness that has bewitched our age.
