Our root fantasy is that "I" am real and that it's possible for "me" to be happy.

As a leader, you have the choice to determine what you are going to do and how you are going to engage others. You can decide to act compassionately regardless of what the weather is - whether it is cloudy or sunny - or whether things are inspirational or not.

The self-assured strength that grows from knowing that we already have what we need makes us gentle, because we are no longer desperate.

To shift the direction of our planet, we must now be willing to experiment with the theory that within the speed and stress, we are good.

If you rise with a positive attitude - because everything is possible, everything is doable - if you have that level of confidence, you exude it. It actually inspires the people around you.

Our mind is always subject to being distracted by thoughts of what happened in the past and ideas of what could happen in the future, but the living experience is what is happening NOW.

If you want to be miserable, think of yourself. If you want to be happy, think of others.
