Our goal is to enjoy, not to achieve perfection

Dear God, I trust that no matter what happens in my life, it is for my highest good. And no matter what happens in the lives of those I love, it is for their highest good. From all things that are put before us all, we shall become stronger and more loving people. I am grateful for all the beauty and opportunity you put into my life. And in all that I do, I shall seek to be a channel for your love.

If everybody feels fear when approaching something totally new in life—yet so many are out there doing it despite the fear—then we must conclude that fear is not the problem.

If you are not enjoying yourself, you are wasting time.

There is an automatic assumption that negative is realistic and positive is unrealistic.

We can't control the world, but we can control our reactions to it.

Pushing through fear is less frightening than living with the fear which comes from the feeling of helplessness.
