Gretchen Rubin is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestsellers, The Four Tendencies, Better Than Before, The Happiness project, and more.

  • Look for happiness under your own roof.
  • The biggest waste of time is to do something well that we need not do at all.
  • Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail, but every day is a clean slate and a fresh opportunity
  • The days are long, but the years are short.
  • Turn off your email; turn off your phone; disconnect from the Internet; figure out a way to set limits so you can concentrate when you need to, and disengage when you need to. Technology is a good servant but a bad master.
  • Working is one of the most dangerous forms of procrastination.
  • I always feel calmer when I exercise. In fact, that’s probably the main reason I exercise.
  • Accept yourself and expect more from yourself.
  • If you want someone else to do a task, don’t do it yourself.
