If there is anything in your life that takes away your happiness, you have all the power you need to change it.
Miguel Angel RuizHumans punish themselves endlessly for not being what they believe they should be. They become very self-abusive, and they use other people to abuse themselves as well.
Miguel Angel RuizIf others tell us something we make assumptions, and if they don't tell us something we make assumptions to fulfill our need to know and to replace the need to communicate.

We make all sorts of assumptions because we don't have the courage to ask questions.
