If you're gonna make a change, you're gonna have to operate from a new belief that says life happens not to me but for me.

Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life's deepest joy: true fulfillment.. Put yourself in a state of mind where you say to yourself, "Here is an opportunity for me to celebrate like never before, my own power, my own ability to get myself to do whatever is necessary."

If you tell yourself a lie long enough, you'll start to believe it.

Your emotions are nothing but biochemical storms in your brain and you are in control of them at any point in time.

All personal breakthroughs begin with a change in beliefs. So how do we change? The most effective way is to get your brain to associate massive pain to the old belief. You must feel deep in your gut that not only has this belief cost you pain in the past, but it's costing you in the present and, ultimately, can only bring you pain in the future. Then you must associate tremendous pleasure to the idea of adopting a new, empowering belief.

Every lion has a time in their life when a thorn has got to them at one point.

No one's life is a smooth sail; we all come into stormy weather. But it's this adversity - and more specifically our resilience - that makes us strong and successful.
