Quotes for thoughts

Was reading a book last night, find it very meaningful and brings lights to my life. There are some quotes that I like and of meaning to me. Thanks to Kai Li for recommending the book to me. Here are some quotes I like from the book THE ALCHEMIST BY PAULO COELHO.

"What's the world's greatest lie? At a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate."

"If you start out by promising what you don't have yet, you'll lose your desire to work toward getting it."

"The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world, and never to forget your roots."

"When you want something, all the universe conspires to help you achieve it."

"People need not fear the unknown if they are capable of achieving what they need and want."

"When you want something with all your heart, that's when you are closest to the SOUL OF THE WORLD. It's always a positive force."

"If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And, if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better. Forget about the future, and live each day according to the teachings. Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity."

"It's not what enters men's mouths that's evil. It's what comes out of their mouths."

"One is loved because one is loved. No reasons is needed for loving."

"Listens to your heart because wherever your heart is, that is where you'll find your treasure."

"Your eyes show the strength of your soul."

"If a person is living out his destiny, he knows everything he needs to know. There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure."

"When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us become better, too."

"Life really is generous to those who pursue their destiny."

From the quotes above and after reading the book, I have come out with this thoughts.
"Keep your thoughts positive, because your thoughts become your words.
Keep your words positive, because your words become your behaviours.
Keep your behaviours positive, because your behaviours become your habits.
Keep your habits positive, because your habits become your values.
Keep your values positive, because your values become your destiny."
