There is only one reason to do anything: as a statement to the universe of Who You Are.

Teach your children that they need nothing exterior to themselves to be happy, no person, place or thing, and that true happiness is found within.

Enthusiasm means everything. Not just a little. Everything. If you are involved in some kind of project right now, or launching any personal endeavor, your enthusiasm (or lack of it) will directly determine how successful this undertaking will be. If you are not excited at the core of your being by it, drop it right now. If you are excited at the core of your being, demonstrate that in everything you think and say and do.

Teach not with your words, but with your actions; not with discussion but with demonstration. For it is what you do that your children will emulate, and how you are that they will become.

If you need to know in advance that everything will 'work out' before you jump in, you'll never jump into anything.

If you saw you as God sees you, you would smile a lot.

The Ultimate Reality is that everything you think you need, you already have. It exists inside of you. Indeed, it is you. You are what you need - and therefore, you give yourself everything you need in any given moment.
