Roy T. Bennett

Follow your heart, listen to your inner voice, stop caring about what others think.

Kindness is not a business. True kindness expects nothing in return and should never act with conditions.

Create your own miracles; do what you think you cannot do.

Shine your light and make a positive impact on the world; there is nothing so honorable as helping improve the lives of others.

It doesn’t matter how many times you get knocked down. All that matters is you get up one more time than you were knocked down.

When the going gets tough, put one foot in front of the other and just keep going. Don’t give up.

Enthusiasm can help you find the new doors, but it takes passion to open them. If you have a strong purpose in life, you don't have to be pushed. Your passion will drive you there.

Associate Yourself with People Who Think Positively: Associate yourself with people who think positively. You cannot surround yourself with negative people and expect positive outcomes.

Life is too short to waste your time on people who don’t respect, appreciate, and value you.

You cannot control the behavior of others, but you can always choose how you respond to it.

Keep your mind open. The meaning of things lies in how people perceive them. The same thing could mean different meanings to the same people at different times.

Until you step into the unknown, you don’t know what you’re made of.

Pursue what catches your heart, not what catches your eyes.

When things do not go your way, remember that every challenge — every adversity — contains within it the seeds of opportunity and growth.

The strongest people find the courage and caring to help others, even if they are going through their own storm.

Changing your outside world cannot make you happy if you are an unhappy person. The real personal change can only happen from the inside out. If you firstly create the change within yourself, you can turn your life around.
