I see people – they won’t be negative toward other people, but inside they’re negative toward themselves, and I think that holds us back.

Joel Osteen

I think how you start the day many times determines what kind of day you’re going to have.

Joel Osteen

I wouldn’t ever say if you’re having tough times then there must be something wrong with you or your attitude. Life’s a fight. It’s a good fight of faith. I encourage people to stay up, stay hopeful, stay faith-filled.

Joel Osteen

If you cannot get along with yourself, you’ll never be able to get along with other people.

If you have a big challenge today, that just means you have a big destiny.

Joel Osteen

If you start praising your wife, if you start telling her how beautiful she is, and how glad you are to have her in your life, when you talk about the good, you will draw out the good. If you talk about the negative, you’ll draw out the negative. It’s up to you.

Joel Osteen

If you think you’re average, then you’ll be average. If you think you’re ordinary, then you’ll live ordinary. The truth is, there is nothing ordinary about you. You have something to offer that nobody else can offer.

Joel Osteen

If you want to build lifelong, loyal friendships, if you want to build trust, learn to protect your family members and friends even when they make mistakes.

Joel Osteen

If you want your life to get better, sometimes the best thing you can do is to help improve somebody else’s life.

Joel Osteen

If you will get free from what everyone else thinks and start being who you were created to be, you will rise to a new level.
