The amount of love, kindness, patience I have for others is is directly proportional to how much love I have for myself, because we cannot give others what we ourselves do not have. And, unsurprisingly, the amount of love, respect, support, and compassion I receive from others is also in direct proportion to how much I love myself.

Once you start believing that something is possible, you start to let it in to your awareness and it starts to become true to you.

Your only purpose is to be yourself, otherwise you deprive the universe of who you came here to be.

Loving yourself means being your own best friend, standing by yourself at all times, including times of failure; being there for yourself no matter what.

The more you believe it, the more it starts to become real for you. This is why it is so very important to believe in positive things, rather than negative things. Whatever you believe, you will find that you are correct. The universe has a way of presenting to you exactly what you believe. If you think life is great, you are correct. If you think life is tough, you will be proved correct too.

We will see beauty in the outer world when we are able to see beauty within ourselves. And this is the best thing we can do for ourselves and for the universe.

The universe is contained within us, and what we experience externally is only a reflection.
