You can live your life angry, bitter, mad at somebody or even guilty, not letting go of your own mistakes, but you won't receive the good things God has in store.

The question is not, 'Do you have a problem?' The question is, 'Does the problem have you?'

I believe God wants you to have money to pay your bills, send your kids to college and do charity work and build orphanages. There's the teaching that we're supposed to be poor to show that we're humble. I don't buy that. I think we're supposed to be leaders. We're supposed to excel.

Don't ever say anything negative about yourself.

God puts people in our lives on purpose so we can help them succeed and help them become all He created them to be. Most people will not reach their full potential without somebody else believing in them.

You're not RESPONSIBLE for somebody else's happiness. You're responsible for your own HAPPINESS.

We can be civil. We can still be friends, and be Democrats and Republicans, and have different views.
