The happiest of people dont necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. - Karen S. Magee Some men see things as they are, and say, Why? Still others dream of things that never were and say, Why not? People excel and learn, not because they are told to, but because they want to.- Peter Senge Live one day at a time and make it a masterpiece. - Dale West Doubt asks who believes? Faith answers, I. Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. Happiness lies ahead for those who cry; those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

You cannot discover oceans unless you have the courage to leave the shore.- Successories The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past.

Once you accept yourself, you open the door to change. Thats all you have to do. Change is not something you do, its something you allow.- Will Garcia LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE We dont always know what makes us happy. We know, instead, what we think SHOULD. We are baffled and confused when our attempts at happiness fail...We are mute when it comes to naming accurately our own preferences, delights, gifts, talents. The voice of our original self is often muffled, overwhelmed, even strangled, by the voices of other peoples expectations. The tongue of the original self is the language of the heart. - Julie Cameron Even if you could live to be 100, its really a very short time. So why not spend it undergoing this process of evolution, of opening your mind and heart, connecting with your true nature - rather than getting better and better at fixing, grasping, freezing, and closing down. We are each unique beings with a unique path in life. If we wish to be fulfilled, we need to go to our own hearts for direction. Master your past in the present, or your past will master your future. Your mind can only hold one thought at a time make it a positive and constructive one. People become what they expect themselves to become. As you begin to live in the present moment, you will experience a subtle but profound change. Your worrying about the future will cease. The good news: God is a nag. God wont give up, if we are destined to carry out some Divine idea, we wont be able to shrug it off. For me, God doesnt just whisper within. If Im supposed to get a message, I start to see it and hear it everywhere - books, sermons, television shows, conversations with friends. Focus on the positive in your life, for what you focus on increases. Fall seven times get up eight. Ignorance breeds fear. Fear breeds hate. Hate breeds violence. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didnt do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore. Dream. Discover. Mark Twain Peace, joy, health and well- being can only be found inside us. They exist within us now, waiting to be discovered. Yet we tend to look to the outside world to satisfy our needs and longings. Our outer life reflects back to us the way we think, feel and behave. The outer world is all effects. Go to the source inside for all of lifes treasures. Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.- Mother Teresa Those who confess ignorance show it once. The person who conceals it shows it many times. We cannot achieve more in life than what we believe in our heart of hearts we deserve to have. - James R. Ball A persons worth is contingent upon who he is, not upon what he does, or how much he has. The worth of a person, or a thing, or an idea, is in being, not in doing, not in having. - Alice Mary Hilton To change our lives, we must first change our minds. Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace. Trust because you are willing to accept the risk, not because it’s safe or certain. It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.- Dolores Ibarruri Honor your feelings. They tell the truth about how you really experience the world. When we encounter someone greater than ourselves, turn your thoughts to becoming his equal. When you encounter someone lesser than you, look within and examine your own self. Your behavior while people are watching is important. However, your behavior while no one is watching is more important, for it reveals your true character. Humans cannot create matter. We can, however, create value. Creating value is in fact, our very humanity. When we praise people for their strength of character we are actually acknowledging their ability to create value. Dream more of becoming than of obtaining. To a great extent, the people with whom you choose to associate influence the direction of your life. Align your personality and soul purpose and experience more synchronicity, fulfillment and happiness. It is never too late to become the person you were meant to be. Knowing others is wisdom; Knowing the self is enlightenment. - Tao Te Ching Know the difference between instinct and habit. Trust your instincts - question your habits. He, who fears he will suffer, already suffers from his fears.- Michel Eyquen The fool who knows he is a fool is for that very reason wise. The fool who thinks himself wise is the greatest fool of all. Let go of anger - it is an acid that burns away the delicate layers of your happiness. Re-examine all that you have been told... dismiss that which insults your soul.- Walt Whitman We can try many ways to get rid of darkness, but none is as effective as simply increasing the light. Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission. - Eleanor Roosevelt The day firing becomes easy is the day to fire yourself. - Tom Peters. In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man - if you want anything done, ask a woman. People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. What you spend years creating others could destroy overnight: Create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have, and it may never be enough: Give your best anyway. In the final analysis, it is between you and God: it was never between you and them anyway. - Mother Teresa The world we are experiencing today is the result of our collective consciousness, and if we want a new world, each of us must start taking responsibility for helping create it. - Rosemary Fillmore Rh There is no limit to what can be accomplished when no one cares who gets credit. - John Wooden Life gives us time only love gives us meaning.

Things dont have to change the world to be important.- Steve Jobs Strangers are just friends waiting to happen. Don’t walk in front of me I may not follow. Don’t walk behind me I may not lead. Walk beside me and be my friend.
