Quotes by

Get Creative — You Will Surprise Yourself and Change the World!
— from Career Success Without a Real Job

The Most Creative Shortcut to Success Is to Reevaluate What Success Means to You.
— from 101 Really Important Things You Already Know But Keep Forgetting

Happiness Doesn’t Care How You Get There
— from How to Retire Happy, Wild and Free

You are fooling yourself whenever you think you are productive just
because you have worked fourteen hours in a day.
You will be truly productive when you do the same amount of work in
four hours, and take the other ten hours to enjoy the good things
life has to offer.
— from The Lazy Person's Guide to Success

Do It Badly — But at Least Do It!
— from Career Success Without a Real Job

You can always make up in creativity what you lack in good fortune. Playing the game of life is like playing poker. Playing three aces badly won't get you as far as playing a terrible hand well.
— from The Lazy Person’s Guide to Success

If you're in a hurry to find happiness, slow down. Give it a chance to catch up with you.
— from The Lazy Person’s Guide to Happiness
