well-being

«Keep the other person's well being in mind when you feel an attack of soul-purging truth coming on»
«I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development alone. The key is to develop inner peace.»
«It is essential to our well-being, and to our lives, that we play and enjoy life. Every single day do something that makes your heart sing.»
Author: Marcia Wieder (Author, Speaker) | Keywords: well-being
«No man, who continues to add something to the material, intellectual and moral well-being of the place in which he lives, is left long without proper reward.»
«Perfectionism is the enemy of creation, as extreme self-solitude is the enemy of well-being.»
Author: John Updike | About: Perfection | Keywords: extreme, perfectionism, well-being
«Men must necessarily be the active agents of their own well-being and well-doing... they themselves must in the very nature of things be their own best helpers.»
«It quite often happens that the old man is subject to the delusion of a great moral renewal and rebirth, and from this experience he passes judgments on the work and course of his life, as if he had only now become clear-sighted; and yet the inspiration behind this feeling of well-being and these confident judgements is not wisdom, but weariness .»
«The leader sacrifices his life for the well being of his people.»
Author: Rig Veda | Keywords: well-being
«People with a scarcity mentality tend to see everything in terms of win-lose. There is only so much; and if someone else has it, that means there will be less for me. The more principle-centered we become, the more we develop an abundance mentality, the more we are genuinely happy for the successes, well-being, achievements, recognition, and good fortune of other people. We believe their success adds to...rather than detracts from...our lives.»
«No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his body - to risk his well-being - to risk his life - in a great cause»
