Investing and connecting are the key factors in turning any intention into reality.

Being willing makes you able.

We are afraid of failure, of ridicule, of being rejected. We are afraid we’re not good enough.

You don't have to earn or deserve love. You are love. Loving is never about how others treat you. It is always about how you are treating yourself.

Each precious moment of your life in which you are frozen with fear is a moment when you are not being all you can be. In the end, that hurts more than anything. Succeeding or failing does not determine if we are surviving or living. Rather it is in our ability to reach beyond our present self-imposed definition of who we are, and to risk becoming more, that we are able to feel fully alive.

Invest in everything, attach to nothing.

Listen to others as if they are telling you the truth, ask questions when you aren't clear, and allow others the room to have different feelings than you. No more assigning hidden motives, prejudging and cutting people off before separating fact from fiction.
