Quotes from Monk Who Sold His Ferrari

Robin Sharma the Canadian born Indian author of best selling books has been the most adorable and inspiring personality. Though I have started reading his books in a very recent past. Some of his quotes in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari are very stirring.

  • "We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when an adult is afraid of the light."
  • "Learn to say NO Learn to say NO back when you are saying YES to an unimportant thing, you are saying NO to an important one"
  • "Work hard & get lucky"
  • "I like that thing that he says on FEAR in Monk book..... its really inspiring..do things that u fear....do things that u r comfortable....get out of your comfort zone"
  • "Here are no limits for a person who accepts no limits."
  • "When one door closes another opens. But we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we fail to see the one that has opened for us."

  • The Universe favors the brave. When you resolve to lift your life to its highest level, the strength of your soul will guide you to a magical place with magnificent treasures.
  • Never forget the importance of living with unbridled exhilaration. Never neglect to see the exquisite beauty in all living things. Today, and this very moment, is a gift. Stayfocused on your purpose. The Universe will take care of everything else.
  • The secret of happiness is simple: find out what you truly love to do and then direct all of your energy towards doing it. Once you do this, abundance flows into your life and all your desires are filled with ease and grace.

  • "Remember that we become our conversations. Our lives eventually look like the people we associate with. Surround yourself with people who are innovative, passionate, interesting, provocative, caring and doing great things and your life cannot help but get better."
  • || You Find What You Seek ||
  • Every second you spend thinking about what you don't want in your life is a second denying focus and energy from getting what you do want. Every minute you worry about what's not working is a minute drawn away from creating what will work. And every hour spent reflecting on the disappointments of the past is an hour stolen from seeing the possibilities that your future holds.
  • What I've discovered in my own life is that I see more of what I look for. Clarity precedes mastery (big idea there) and the more clearly I look for what I want, the more powerfully I generate that result in my life.
