Barbara Walters Quotes

If you have not taken the time to define what happiness means to you, what have your spent your whole life pursuing?

The purpose of your life is Joy.

Happiness is not on my list of priorities. I just deal with day-to-day things. If I'm happy, I'm happy – and if I'm not, I don't know the difference... Knowing that you are the person you were put on this earth to be – that's much more important than just being happy.

I love my life, because I’ve seen my purpose.

Do what brings you joy, and your purpose will unfold.

You've got to find your bliss as a human being, because if you can follow that, everything else falls into place.

To be happy--one must find one's bliss

I feel blessed. So many men and women search and search but never find their passion, their calling, their sense of mission that would ignite their hearts and fill their lives with meaning and joy.

If you're not having fun - I don't care what you're doing - don't do it. Move on. Find something else, life's too short.

I think that most people will spend their whole life not figuring out what they're meant to do, or figuring out what they're meant to do on their way to do something else. So I just feel lucky that I know what I love to do. Everything else figures itself out.

Nothing is more important than reconnecting with your bliss. Nothing is as rich. Nothing is more real.

I'm happiest when I have something to focus my energy on.

It's getting harder to make decisions to just want to do something to work... I'm trying to find things that are extremely challenging or mean something to me deeply.

Don't worry about writing a book or getting famous or making money. Just lead an interesting life.

Follow your passion. Nothing - not wealth, success, accolades or fame - is worth spending a lifetime doing things you don't enjoy.

But really it was just, it was perfect. You know, I actually got that feeling like you know what, maybe this is why I'm alive, you know - maybe this is why I'm here on this on earth.

You have to love what you do. And in order to do that, you have to search your soul to find out what it is that you really are about. And then when you find it, if you're lucky enough to be in a position to do what it is that you love, it becomes easy. I'm blessed that I ended up doing exactly what I wanted to do.

A calling is the place where your gifts, abilities, desires, and feelings of worth all meet. When you follow your calling, you feel at home, at peace - you feel as though you're where you're meant to be.

I want to live a fulfilling life.

There's nothing more nourishing to the spirit than doing what you feel called to do.

When it comes to anything you want to do in your life, you have to be passionate. Success may come, but in the end, the most important thing is that you are doing what you really want to do.

When you get to do things you love with every fiber of your being, it's a different experience.

One of the greatest struggles of becoming an adult is figuring out what you want to do and what makes you happy. The courageous thing is to stick with it and see it through and see if you were correct.

Fighting for happiness is the hardest thing you'll ever fight for, but it's the only thing worth fighting for.

Happiness is living by inner purpose, not by outer pressures. Happiness is having a sense of meaning, not a feeling of futility.
