Deepak Chopra Quotes

Knowing your purpose gives meaning to your life.

I would like my kids to follow their bliss.

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

Set yourself earnestly to discover what you are made to do, and then give yourself passionately to the doing of it.

Every person is born with a talent, and happiness depends on discovering that talent in time.

Everything has its own place and function. That applies to people, although many don't seem to realize it, stuck as they are in the wrong job, the wrong marriage, or the wrong house. When you know and respect your Inner Nature, you know where you belong. You also know where you don't belong.

To find one's calling is perhaps not the easiest thing in the world, but probably the most important.

Happiness comes when we test our skills towards some meaningful purpose.

My advice to anyone is to figure out what you're good at - what it is that you love doing the most in life - and figure out a way to make a living from it.

I'm in this wonderful place of life, where everything I'm doing is something I do because I enjoy it.

It's weird. I don't really have goals. I just try to make sure I'm enjoying what I'm doing. Once I start to get sick of it, the next thing becomes obvious.

My ambition is to have beautiful encounters, not to make money.

You can't tell what's going to fulfill you in different stages in your life.

The questions I'm asking myself are, 'What makes me happy? Where do I want to be? What will make me happy at 50, 60 and 70?'

You only have one life and if you're not doing what you love, what's the point?

If you do the things you enjoy and are good at, I really have a feeling that that will lead to having a fulfilling life, and people with fulfilling lives are able to be 'good people.'

Some goals are not going to fulfill you. Choose goals that you value and care about.

I do things that I actually love and understand.

I want to live a fulfilling life.

I'm just interested in carving out a meaningful life.

If you don't wake up and have your own thing, whether it's writing or reading or traveling or acting or dancing or singing or being a mother or a father, something that drives you, then it's all worth nothing. One of the key elements in happiness is purpose.

I had fame and wealth and things that are supposed to make you happy, but I wasn't happy, because there's no importance on having a fulfilling life. So in my mid-40s, that was my pursuit - making films that interested me, films that I would like to go see.

Have the courage to follow your passion - and if you don't know what it is, realize that one reason for your existence on earth is to find it.

The key to a happy life is to have accomplishments to be proud of and purpose to look forward to, and at the moment I had both. How wonderful it was to be me.

Don't worry about finding your bliss right now. Not even our President knew what his bliss was, nor did I. One of these days to your own surprise, your bliss will find you. But no matter what you do, participate, be there, full force, full heart, full steam ahead.
