It's simply up to you to find the ones that have the most meaning for you.

The positive feelings and emotions that prosperous spending brings is what attracts more positive things in your life.

SchwartzThe biggest secret weapon we had in regards to really being true to this part of the world, and making sure this part of the world could see themselves in this film [Moana] in a way that felt positive and accurate, was Opetaia, my co-writer, Opetaia Foa'i, who has a great band called Te Vaka and is an amazing musical and cultural ambassador.

Sydney BanksWe make the commitment to stop for a moment and look at what the mind is doing, what mind state we are dwelling in. We don't judge it, we just know it.

We'll become more and more the masters of our mind, rather than the slaves.
