To help others develop, start with yourself.

The great Western disease is, ‘I'll be happy when... When I get the money. When I get a BMW. When I get this job. When I get the relationship,’ Well, the reality is, you never get to when. The only way to find happiness is to understand that happiness is not out there. It's in here. And happiness is not next week. It's now.

After living with their dysfunctional behavior for so many years, people become invested in defending their dysfunctions rather than changing them.

If you aren't opening doors for people, you are closing them!

If we can stop, listen, and think about what others are seeing in us, we have a great opportunity. We can compare the self that we want to be with the self that we are presenting to the rest of the world. We can then begin to make the real changes that are needed to close the gap between our stated values and our actual behavior.

The best way that we can begin to produce positive change is to make peace with what is in ourselves and others, and then work to move forward and make life even better.

Lasting goal achievement requires lots of time, hard work, sacrifice & dedication to a process that is maintained over years.
