To truly be of service to others, we must first serve the server. The ability to bring an enlightened presence to those in need is the ability to light a candle without burning ourselves out.

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

Courage isn't the absence of fear, but a decision that what we want is more important than what we are afraid of.

Remembering the past should help you create a purposeful future, not cause you to be afraid of it.

When dealing with problems, seek not to "change" some aspect of your life but instead, choose who you want to become as a path to what you want. Transformation and healing then take place as a process of becoming versus avoiding.

Nothing is meaningless it's how we assign meaning to the past that determines how we experience the present, and future.

One key to successful relationships is learning to say "no" without guilt, so that you can say "yes" without resentment.
