Success is... living a full and balanced life in partnership with others to create a joyful feeling of love, contribution, appreciation and abundance, despite how our endeavors may turn out.

As your awareness of the riches available to you in your everyday life grows, you are on the way to becoming the laughing Buddha. Life is joyous. Life is Light. Life is happy. You are awake at last.

Most of us do not 'sculpt' our lives. We accept what comes our way, then we gripe about it.

Knowing that we can make a difference in this world is a great motivator. How can we know this and not be involved?

One step at a time is enough for me. Impatience is simply a way of beating yourself up.

You are innately designed to use your personal power. When you don't, you experience a sense of helplessness, paralysis, and depression-which is your clue that something is not working as it could. You, like all of us, deserve everything that is wonderful and exciting in life. And those feelings emerge only when you get in touch with your powerful self.

For some reason, when you become a support to others, you become bigger than you are.
