Every morning, in your first view of the day, you have the choice to say, 'Good morning, God' or 'Good God, morning.'

Faith is a way of going within and creating a sense of control over one's life at any given moment.

Live forgiveness every day rather than just talking about it on Sunday.

Most people tell themselves these excuses - I've always been this way, this is my nature, I can't help it - that are just memes. They're belief systems that keep you from being able to become all that you are intended to become. They're impediments to reaching God-realization, or Tao-centeredness. People lose track of their purpose, because they are so back there - living in their past. Byron Katie speaks about this: Who would you be without your story? Carlos Castaneda used to say if you don't have a story, you don't have to live up to it. So get rid of your story.

Your past history and all of your hurts are no longer here in your physical reality. Don't allow them to be here in your mind, muddying your present moments. Your life is like a play with several acts. Some of the characters who enter have short roles to play, others, much longer. But all are necessary, otherwise they wouldn't be in the play. Embrace them all, and move on to the next act.

Stop giving energy to the things you don't want.

Wherever you are, at whatever age, you're only a thought away from changing your life.
