We become what we repeatedly do.

Life is a mission, not a career. A career is a profession, a mission is a cause. A career asks, What's in it for me? A mission asks, How can I make a difference?

You can usually tell when a couple becomes centered on each other because they are forever breaking up and getting back together.

Now think deeply. What have you done with your life over the past year? How do you feel inside?

Make as many friends as you can, but don't build your life on them alone. It's an unstable foundation.

If you could envision the type of person God intended you to be, you would rise up and never be the same again.

Being gentle means forgiving yourself when you mess up. We should learn from our mistakes, but we shouldn't beat the tar out of ourselves over them. The past is just that, past. Learn what went wrong and why. Make amends if you need to. Then drop it and move on.
