The difference between success and failure isn't the absence of fear but the determination to pursue your heart's desires no matter how scared you are.

Use anything you can think of to understand and be understood, and you'll discover the creativity that connects you with others.

Imagine what you'd do if it absolutely didn't matter what people thought of you. Got it? Good. Never go back.

The important thing is to tell yourself a life story in which you, the hero, are primarily a problem solver rather than a helpless victim. This is well within your power, whatever fate might have dealt you.

All religious leaders and spiritual teachers emphasize finding a place within us that is true. People who obsessively follow these leaders instead of their own purpose attach to the spiritual leader and become fanatical and controlling. That's why Jesus tried to tell his followers not to get attached to outward form.

You shine for who you are ... because no one can steal your light.

Tiny steps will get you to your goal months and months sooner. A little is better than a lot.
