inspirational motivational education
Learning is finding out what you already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers, teachers.
reflection practice perfect
I'm utterly convinced of the One-ness of Love and us as its perfect reflection. I am absolutely convinced that the world around us is a world of appearances and anyone who wants to can practice it. Change your thought and your environment will change. It's not instantaneous and sometimes we have to work very hard to make what we want happen. Working hard and holding that thought, it will change.
achievement vision gulls
The gull sees farthest who flies highest
love good-morning happiness
The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it.
gratitude problem messiah
There is no such thing as a problem without a gift.
mean thinking choices
nobody means to get carried away in mediocrity, but it happens, it happens unless you think about everything you do, unless you make every choice the best one you know how to make.
dream compromise
The only thing that shatters dreams is compromise.
inspirational success knowing
To fly as fast as thought, to anywhere that is, you must begin by knowing that you have already arrived.
being-strong believe winning
Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.
and-love testing adventuring
Testing ourselves over and again, learning love and love and LOVE
reality light our-world
I'm absolutely convinced that this is a world of appearances, not reality. There's one reality and that's Light and Love. When some say, we create our own reality, I always demur and say, "Please, would you mind adjusting that a little bit? We create our own appearances." We become master of appearances and as we change our thought, we will see the appearances around us change. That gives us this huge sense of dominion and power and control over our world.
wall winning shining
Win by losing. Before your outer walls break, as break they must, build an inner place to protect your truth. Protect that you are infinite life, choosing its playground; protect that the world you know exists with your consent and for your own good reasons; protect that your purpose and mission is to shine love in your own playful way, in the moments you decide will be most dramatic.
