Jack Canfield Quotes That Will Feed Your Soul

1. Successful people maintain a positive focus in life no matter what is going on around them. They stay focused on their past successes rather than their past failures, and on the next action steps they need to take to get them closer to the fulfillment of their goals rather than all the other distractions that life presents to them. – Jack Canfield

Everyday Application: It is so easy to get distracted in today’s world. However, focus is the key to staying positive and dedicated to your goals. It is much easier to stay focused when you pay attention to the positive things in life. This doesn’t mean bad things won’t happen and that you shouldn’t process them. Don’t lose sight of all the good though.

2. It’s not an accident that musicians become musicians and engineers become engineers: it’s what they’re born to do. If you can tune into your purpose and really align with it, setting goals so that your vision is an expression of that purpose, then life flows much more easily. – Jack Canfield

Everyday Application: Live life in accordance with your authentic self. What matters to you? Who do you want to be? Don’t shoehorn yourself into living a version of life that doesn’t speak to your soul. Be who you were meant to be!

3. I believe that people make their own luck by great preparation and good strategy. – Jack Canfield

Everyday Application: What is luck and do you need it? The answer really depends on how you view the locus of control. Is your success due to your hard work, effort, and sacrifice? Or, do you think it is because of some outside force?

4. The longer you hang in there, the greater the chance that something will happen in your favor. No matter how hard it seems, the longer you persist, the more likely your success. – Jack Canfield

Everyday Application: Perseverance is one of the most overlooked traits. How many people quit or give up on something right before they would have reached their goals? Jack reminds us that it is numbers game. Hang in there, make adjustments, and just keep going!

5. Trust your gut feeling about things, listen to what others are saying, and look at the results of your actions. Once you know the truth, you can set about taking action to improve. Everyone will be better for it. – Jack Canfield

Everyday Application: This is great advice you can apply to every aspect of your life. Intuition is a good thing (it doesn’t always get it right, but it’s valuable). You can weigh other people’s thoughts and opinions with your knowledge and intuition, and then make a plan. It is not enough to just learn the truth, but you have to have actions too, if you want to see a change.

6. Write your goals down in detail and read your list of goals every day. Some goals may entail a list of shorter goals. Losing a lot of weight, for example, should include mini-goals, such as 10-pound milestones. This will keep your subconscious mind focused on what you want step by step. – Jack Canfield

7. If I hadn’t spent many years trying to be as compassionate as Mother Teresa, as positive a thinker as W. Clement Stone, as prolific a writer as Stephen King, and as good a speaker as many of the legends I have studied, I would not be as successful as I am today. – Jack Canfield

8. I have written a new book called ‘The Golden Motorcycle Gang.’ The premise of the book is taken from actual events in my life. My life has been dedicated to inspiring and motivating others to live their highest vision of their ideal life and offering transformational trainings that help people succeed in all aspects of their lives. – Jack Canfield

9. By taking the time to stop and appreciate who you are and what you’ve achieved – and perhaps learned through a few mistakes, stumbles and losses – you actually can enhance everything about you. Self-acknowledgment and appreciation are what give you the insights and awareness to move forward toward higher goals and accomplishments. – Jack Canfield

10. Self-esteem is made up primarily of two things: feeling lovable and feeling capable. – Jack Canfield

11. When you really need help, people will respond. Sincerity means dropping the image facade and showing a willingness to be vulnerable. Tell it the way it is, lumps and all. Don’t worry if your presentation isn’t perfect; ask from your heart. Keep it simple, and people will open up to you. – Jack Canfield

12. I generally find that comparison is the fast track to unhappiness. No one ever compares themselves to someone else and comes out even. Nine times out of ten, we compare ourselves to people who are somehow better than us and end up feeling more inadequate. – Jack Canfield

The only thing I have control over is my response to these things. – Jack Canfield

17. People who ask confidently get more than those who are hesitant and uncertain. When you’ve figured out what you want to ask for, do it with certainty, boldness and confidence. Don’t be shy or feel intimidated by the experience. You may face some unexpected criticism, but be prepared for it with confidence. – Jack Canfield

18. One individual can begin a movement that turns the tide of history. Martin Luther King in the civil rights movement, Mohandas Gandhi in India, Nelson Mandela in South Africa are examples of people standing up with courage and non-violence to bring about needed changes. – Jack Canfield

19. Remember, you and you alone are responsible for maintaining your energy. Give up blaming, complaining and excuse making, and keep taking action in the direction of your goals – however mundane or lofty they may be. – Jack Canfield

24. I don’t blame or complain about things like the economy, the government, taxes, employees, gas prices, or any of the external things that I don’t have control over. The only thing I have control over is my response to these things. – Jack Canfield
