When we take no responsibility for any aspect of our past, we limit our ability to respond in the present and the future.

True 'magic' is simply the ability to transcend what seems to be and, thus, transform one's experience. Maybe we could all use a little 'Harry Potter' in our lives.

Mistakes are just 'mis-takes,' or an action that we took that missed.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal while blaming our misery on the person who started the fire.

Our success and happiness depends not on simply knowing where we stand, but in where we are wanting to go.

To influence others to change, you must be able to frame that change in terms of the future, and in a way that has value to all concerned.

Never define people or situations in terms of their effect on you, unless you want to give them the power to make you feel that way.
