You are not your circumstances. You are your possibilities. If you know that, you can do anything.

To be fully human is...to know that it's possible to face the unimaginable and somehow put one foot in front of the other.

Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.

We're all called. If you're here breathing, you have a contribution to make to our human community. The real work of your life is to figure out your function-your part in the whole-as soon as possible, and then get about the business of fulfilling it as only you can.

Allowing the truth of who you are-your spiritual self-to rule your life means you stop the struggle and learn to move with the flow of your life.

If you're going to binge, literature is definitely the way to do it.

Don't put a ceiling on yourself.
