It's one thing to make a pronouncement in a moment of inspiration about what you intend to manifest in your life or what kind of person you intend to become. It's quite another thing to make a commitment to holding that vision regardless of what difficulties or obstacles may surface. Holding the vision involves an unwillingness to compromise what you're visualizing for yourself. It means being willing to suffer through criticism and what appears to be an uncooperative universe.

There is a universal intelligence that we call God or Soul or Spirit or Consciousness, and it is everywhere and in all things.

The more you see yourself as what you'd like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you'll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to transform your dream into your reality.

All your behavior results from the thoughts that precede it.

Anytime you start a sentence with 'I am,' you are creating what you are and what you want to be.

Dance... enjoy each step along the way.

Those whose purpose does not match yours are not wrong; they have their mission, and finding their own purposeful way may involve many detours and acts that seem destructive.
