The ability to find meaning in the most difficult times, I think, is one of the most important skills of life.

One belief that I've developed to carry me through extremely tough times is simply this: God's delays are not God's denials.

The difference between acting badly or brilliantly is not based on your ability, but on the state of your mind and/or body in any given moment.

Have you ever said, 'I can't do that! I'm just not like that!'? If you've ever used this phrase, you've hit the boundary of how you've defined yourself in the past, and it's affecting the quality of your present-day life. Ask yourself, 'Where did these beliefs about who I am come from, and how old are they?' Maybe it's time to update your identity.

Everything happens for a reason and a purpose, and it serves you.

The truth is that even in the information age, information is not enough. if all we needed were ideas and positive thinking, then we all would have had ponies when we were kids and we would all be living our "dream life" now. Action is what unites every great success. Action is what produces results. Knowledge is only potential power until it comes into the hands of someone who knows how to get himself to take effective action. In fact, the literal definition of the word "power" is "the ability to act."

Power moves with you when you have an intent to serve more than yourself.
