Lucille Ball Quotes

My life is so much better than I thought it was going to be.

You have to pay attention to the moment and make it the best it can be for you. I've been trying to do that. It's really made a major difference for me. I'm a happier person.

If in any case I did find error in that which I have collected from my natural understanding, I should count it good fortune, since I enjoy life, and endeavour to pass it not in weeping and sighing, but in peace, joy, and cheerfulness, and from time to time climb thereby a step higher.

My life is exactly the way it needs to be.

I'm constantly on the hunt for insights about happiness or ideas about how to be happier - which probably makes me a somewhat tiresome companion at times.

You know, why at the end of your life should you assemble thousands of pages of 'Why am I so sad, why am I so depressed?' Instead, assemble thousands of pages of why you're so content.

I have come a long way and learnt a lot. I read this quote about a year ago: 'Happiness must not be pursued; it must ensue.' It's made me realise that just being married again or something like that won't make me happy; the happiness ensues from how we live our lives.

I've found joy, peace and perspective. Those are very good things to have.

I'm having a great life, and I want to go on having one.

The secret to life is finding joy in ordinary things. I'm interested in happiness.

I would rate the fact that I get to be alive a big beautiful 10. Satisfaction with myself - work in progress.

I had a handle on satisfaction, and I loved my career, but I didn't really know what happiness was. So I started on this quest to have a happy life.

I've realised I can be happy.

When you're happy you find pure joy in your life. There are no regrets in this state of happiness - and that's a goal worth striving for in all areas of your life.

The ultimate goal is to be more satisfied. I really don't believe you get wiser because you get older. It's a choice, perhaps not to take some things so seriously.

I feel like my life is pretty special.

Happiness is an inside job.

I think I was always joyous, but I don't think I became very aware of positivity and its power until I became older. I always did it naturally, but then I lost it, and it forced me to find it again and appreciate it more.

I like the way my life has taken me.

All I can focus on is what I can control and that's being happy. My own happiness.

Happiness isn't for dabblers.

I feel like the few times in my life when I really felt like I love my own story is when I've been the happiest.

Know your own happiness.

Self-knowledge makes me happy.

If you have nothing to do, look at yourself and see if there isn't something close at hand that you can improve. It may make you wealthy, although it is more likely it will make you happy.
