The problem of life is, partly the problem of attention. Give attention to evil thoughts and desires, and you suffer. Give attention to what is pure and unselfish, and you become vibratory.

Right attention is essential to achievement. And the way to right attention is the way of self-control.�Sadhu Vaswani

Improvement depends far less upon length of tasks and hours of application than is supposed. Children can take in but a little each day; they are like vases with a narrow neck; you may pour little or pour much, but much will not enter at a time. �Jules Michelet

Go not minimizing changes regardless of how minute they might be. A mountain is a pile of tiny atoms, a beach is the accumulation of billions of grains of sand, and an ocean is a collection of billions of drops of rain. Learn to think in terms of little gains and gradual change and you will one day see big changes occurring in your life. �Paul Hauck

It is a great mistake for man to give up paying compliments, for when they give up saying what is charming, they give up thinking what is charming. �Oscar Wilde

We have no more right to consume happiness without producing it than to consume wealth without producing it.
