Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves. All people live in their own dream, in their own mind; they are in a completely different world from the one we live in. When we take something personally, we make the assumption that they know what is in our world, and we try to impose our world on their world.

Do not let great ambitions overshadow small success.

My personal prayer is simply my joy to be alive, and to live in gratitude and generosity.

The way you react has been repeated thousands of times, and it has become a routine for you. You are conditioned to be a certain way. And that is the challenge: to change your normal reactions, to change your routine, to take a risk and make different choices.

From my point of view, humanity is one living being. Male-female - we complement each other in a sacred communion. But once again, respect is the key. Respect is what makes the sacred communion possible.

When you look in the mirror and hate what you see, you need addictions to survive.

For many years, I used to pray as an act of power, but that was before I had 100% faith in myself.
