A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do.

I've always been very happy. I've always been easy going and I've always been very encouraging; it's just my personality.

I like to think my dad was easygoing and kind, and I think some of those things have been passed down. I am like him in a sense of being positive and hopeful. He was compassionate, and I've got a lot of that in me as well.

Every one of us has secret dreams and desires along with seeds of greatness implanted within us. You too have gifts to share with this world. There is buried treasure within you, waiting to be discovered. Your full potential has not been released yet. Your God-given divine destiny awaits you.

You will never change what you tolerate.

Don’t talk about the way you are. Talk about the way you want to be.

Don't just go through it; grow through it.
