It is not selfish or narcissistic to love yourself. It is your first and foremost responsibility.
As soon as you become aware that something is not working, immediately shift your focus to the desired result.
An authentic life does not require anyone else's approval for your creative choices.
The more you have to talk yourself into it, the more it’s not ‘it’.
Why wait for your ship to come in when you are already on it?
Ask for peace first, and you will clearly see your next step.
