We have converted our wounds into a type of relationship currency that we use in order to control situations and people.

Get bored with your past, it's over!

I love myself enough-not in a schmaltzy garbage sense, Hallmark stuff, I'm talking respect myself-I respect my life-force enough to no longer waste it.

Perfectionism is the fear of being criticized.

If you don't appreciate what you have in life right now, whatever it is, you will never realize your purpose. Without appreciation, you will never become strong enough to respect yourself.

I would remind people that this day of your life will never come again. Do not use one day of your life carelessly. It will never come again. You'll never see the person you're sitting across from in that light or in that way. You will never see the sunset twice. This day will never come again.

Power is at the root of the human experience. Our attitudes and beliefs--positive or negative--are all extensions of how we define and use power.
