mind listening reason
The only reason your mind won't stop its endless chattering is because you won't stop listening to it!
dark feelings moments
Our greatest strength isn't our ability to imagine brighter days ahead, it is that we are empowered-in every present moment-to effortlessly dismiss any dark thought or feeling that, left unattended, diminishes our happiness.
thinking success-and-failure treats
You must learn to stop thinking in terms of beginnings and endings, successes and failures, and begin to treat everything in your life as a learning experience instead of a proving one.
weakness degrees
The strength of any weakness within us is the degree to which it is feared.
believe being-there needed
Within the human being there exists both the needful and the needed. You know that the needful exists in you. Your own dissatisfaction tells you so. But you believe the needed is somewhere outside of you.
dream real effort
Those who dare to try what others only dream of - never fail to discover that real effort is always rewarded.
inspirational boys deep-inside
From the movie, The Boy Who Could Fly Somewhere, deep inside, we can all fly.
clever heart cutting
If we only knew how many times our seemingly clever comment cut straight into the heart of the person with whom we have just spoken, it is we who would bleed.
inspirational love-is about-yourself
Until you can love what the truth would teach you about yourself... then your love is incomplete.
motivational character hard-work
The great ones in life are not those who are handed silver spoons. Their excellence comes from digging into the raw ore of their own character, through hard work, persistence and faith turning whatever they touch into gold.
talking differences bad-company
Talking to yourself proves only one thing: you're still unable to tell the difference between good and bad company.
real real-life life-is
False life is exhausting; Real Life is inexhaustible.
being-yourself thinking people
Stop Looking for Permission to Be Yourself. The true individual is no more concerned over what others may think of him or her than is the sun troubled by people complaining that it's too warm, or that it shines too bright!
hurt philosophical thinking
Listening to your own mind gives you "good reasons" why you should be fearful over unexpected events is just like being friends with someone who thinks it's funny to find new ways to hurt you!
