When the path becomes difficult, that's no reason to give up. In fact, it means you're making real progress.

Sure, it's easy to be upbeat when everything is going your way. Anyone can do that. It is far more important, however, to take a positive approach in circumstances that most people would view as negative.

You were born to be real, not to be perfect. You are here to be you, not to live someone else's life.

There's nothing that says you have to succeed in the same way as someone else. In fact, there's nothing that says you must define success in the same way as someone else.

The direction of your focus is the direction your life will move. Let yourself move toward what is good, valuable, strong and true

Perfectionism is really a manifestation of the belief that one's efforts are never good enough. Imagine: How many of the obstacles standing in your way are the product of your own imagination? What have you convinced yourself that you can't do? What limitations have you come to believe in? Your mind is very powerful and effective. Is it working for you, or against you?

Allow love to fill the places where anxiety now resides.
