About This Quote
Very little is needed to make a happy life. We should enjoy our life to the fullest. But, unfortunately, most of us are what I call "the 99 percenters". We are the majority of people in this world who are willing to do almost anything to get by.
We are the ones who are willing to put up with any amount of stress just so we can get a few more hours of sleep or a few more minutes at work. We are the ones who have made our lives acceptable by making them very small and very ordinary. The 1 percenters are the people who have broken through all of that.
They have shown us that it is possible to live life on our terms.
