Though the universe is delightfully complex, life, at its heart, is not particularly complicated. Live true to who you are and though it won't always be easy, you'll live well.

Whats holding you back is the thought that something is holding you back.

Look, really look, at how beautiful this day is. Let go of the worries and anxieties and judgments, and see the beauty.

If you so choose, every mistake can lead to greater understanding and effectiveness. If you so choose, every frustration can help you to be more patient and more persistent.

Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy.

Meaning is found not in the rewards, for they are only tokens. Seek not to have the gold medal. Instead, seek to be the person who can win the gold medal. It is in the quest that you'll find the fulfillment which the reward represents.

It doesn't matter how much you want. What really matters is how much you want it.
