Brian Tracy Quotes

You drift through life and let things happen to you, or go by design and say, 'This is what I'm intended to do.'

I am a person who lives my life based on intention. I don't do anything without intention because intention determines the outcome of your life. It's like cause and effect.

Everything you think, say, and do needs to become intentional and aligned with your purpose, your values, and your goals.

Build a life, don't live one...

Choose your friends with caution; plan your future with purpose, and frame your life with faith.

Choice is more than picking 'x' over 'y.' It is a responsibility to separate the meaningful and the uplifting from the trivial and the disheartening. It is the only tool we have that enables us to go from who we are today to who we want to be tomorrow.

One thing I feel clear about is that it's important not to let your life live you. Otherwise, you end up at forty feeling you haven't really lived. What have I learned? Perhaps to live now, so that at fifty I won't look back upon my forties with regret.

Meditation is simply about being yourself and knowing something about who that is. It is about coming to realize that you are on a path whether you like it or not, namely, the path that is your life. Meditation may help us see that this path we call our life has direction; that it is always unfolding, moment by moment; and that what happens now, in this moment, influences what happens next.

Everything changes when you make a decision to be one of the courageous ones, someone who chooses to make a life, rather than a living.

Don’t let your life speed out of control. Live intentionally. Do something today that will last beyond your lifetime.

Do you respond to life or are you merely reacting to it?

Not what you do, but how you do what you do determines whether you are fulfilling your destiny. And how you do what you do is determined by your state of consciousness.

Either you set your goals and, in doing so, have your life governed by choice or you do nothing and have your life governed by chance.

The only time that any of us have to grow or change or feel or learn anything is in the present moment. But we're continually missing our present moments, almost willfully, by not paying attention.

We must each lead a way of life with self-awareness and compassion, to do as much as we can. Then, whatever happens we will have no regrets.

The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future — which, of course, can only be experienced as the Now

If you know me, you know I make every day count, I'm serious about my life.

To live consciously means to seek to be aware of everything that bears on our actions, purposes, values, and goals—to the best of our ability, whatever that ability may be—and to behave in accordance with that which we see and know.

Life is a series of moments. The quality of attention and action that we bring to each moment determines the quality of our lives.

Listen--are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?

Meditation is not to escape from society, but to come back to ourselves and see what is going on. Once there is seeing, there must be acting. With mindfulness, we know what to do and what not to do to help.

Whether you respond to life or react to life determines how far you're gonna go in life.

Our highest endeavour must be to develop individuals who are able out of their own initiative to impart purpose & direction to their lives.

And truly, O man, if you concentrate hard on the state you are in it will be surprising if you have time for anything else.

The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That's all there ever is.
