Life can only be as new as you Choose to be.

Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!

Instead of always asking yourself why so-and-so acts this or that way, learn to ask: "What's inside of me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone else acts?"

Our greatest strength isn't our ability to imagine brighter days ahead, it is that we are empowered-in every present moment-to effortlessly dismiss any dark thought or feeling that, left unattended, diminishes our happiness.

You cannot separate the onset of a disturbing moment in life from the appearance of some simultaneous new possibility to know a deeper and more unshakable sense of peace.

We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.

One of the most important rules for me is: Don't ever defend myself. If we could put this one principle into practice, how much more simple life would be.
