Quote by Leo Tolstoy

“Rejoice! The purpose of life is joy. Rejoice at the sky, the sun, the stars, the grass, the trees, animals, people. If this joy is disturbed it means that you've made a mistake somewhere. Find your mistake and correct it. Most often this joy is disturbed by money and ambition.”

Without it, a perplexing gap can be created when we set out to apply all that psychologically proven information to produce the specific type of life or career we want. Understanding how quality is defined, built, and managed was the missing link for me.”
