"The key to a good life is this: If you're not going to
talk about something during the last hour of your life, then don't make
it a top priority during your lifetime."
"Reflection is one of the most underused yet powerful
tools for success."
"Circumstances don't make a person; they reveal him or
her."
"It seems that we have it backward in our society. We
tend to look up to people who are under a great deal of stress, who can
handle loads of stress, and those who are under a great deal of pressure."
"No one knows exactly where thought comes from, but it
can be said that thought comes from the same place as whatever it is that
beats our heart... it comes from being alive."
"Stress is nothing more than a socially acceptable form
of mental illness."
"The ill effects of thought come about when we forget
that thought is a function of our consciousness... an ability that we as
human beings have. We are the producers of our own thinking."
"The trick is to be grateful when your mood is high and
graceful when it is low."
"When you let someone else win an argument, often you
both end up winners."
"Something wonderful begins to happen with the simple
realization that life, like an automobile, is driven from the inside out,
not the other way around. As you focus more on becoming more peaceful with
where you are, rather than focusing on where you would rather be, you begin
to find peace right now, in the present. Then, as you move around, try
new things, and meet new people, you carry that sense of inner peace with
you. It's absolutely true that, "Wherever you go, there you are."
"If we would just slow down, happiness would catch up
to us."
"Don't sweat the small stuff...and it's all small stuff."

life can be described as a series of mistakes, one right after another
with a little space in between."
"You are what you practice most."
"If we could only live the way we know deep down we should,
we would guarantee ourselves a life of richness & fulfillment."
"Choose to be kind over being right and you'll be right
everytime."
"The old adage, 'If it sounds too good to be true, it
probably is' isn't always correct. In fact, the suspicion, cynicism, and
doubt that are inherent in this belief can and does keep people from taking
advantage of excellent opportunities."
"One of the most dynamic and significant changes you can
make in your life is to make the commitment to drop all negative references
to your past, to begin living now."
"Many people spend their entire lifetimes wishing that other people would acknowledge them. They feel this especially about their parents, spouses, children, and friends."

- Helen Keller
- Virgil
Every great work, every big accomplishment, has been brought into manifestation through holding to the vision, and often just before the big achievement, comes apparent failure and discouragement.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
Confidence cannot find a place wherein to rest in safety. Consider what each soil will bear, and what each refuses. Do not yield to misfortunes, but advance more boldly to meet them, as your fortune permits you.
