There's a huge difference between achieving to be happy and happily achieving.

You can't always control the wind, but you can control your sails.

If you don't make a conscious effort to control your focus-and decide in advance which things you're going to focus on-you'll be so pulled by the demands of the world that you will soon find yourself living in reaction rather than living a life plan you've designed for yourself.

My personal belief is that the only thing keeping you from freedom is all the beliefs you have about what has to happen before you can be there.

In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.

A genuine quality of life comes from consistent, quality questions.

When people ask me what really changed my life, I tell them that absolutely the most important thing was changing what I demanded on myself.
