Inspirational quotes and sayings have the power to make us think about the world differently, motivate us to change, and even put us in a good mood. I find it helpful to put happiness quotes I find impactful on my bathroom mirror, on my office bulletin board and on my Pinterest board as constant reminders to not sweat the small stuff. Here are 10 happiness quotes I love:
1. “Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.”
2. “You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.”
3. “The secret of being happy is accepting where you are in life and making the most out of everyday.”
4. “You can’t change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying about the future.”
5. “Peace is the result of retraining your mind to process life as it is, rather than as you think it should be.”
6. “Why worry? If you’ve done the very best you can, worrying won’t make it any better.”
7. “I am not what has happened to me. I am what I choose to become.”
8. “Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate.”
9. “Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it, insist upon it, and sometimes even travel around the world looking for it. You have to participate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings.”
10. “Life is like a camera. Focus on what’s important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives. And if things don’t work out, take another shot.”
