Words may help you understand something, but experience allows you to know. Never ever trade your own experience for someone else's words about anything that is really important... like God, for instance, or Love, or what is true about another.

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. You won't find glory at the center of safety, but at its edge. You won't find love at a place where you are covered, but in the space where you are exposed. You gotta take some risks. You have to not only pick up the dice, but roll'em. So go ahead, take the gamble. You have nothing to lose except the chance to win. Life is not long enough to spend it on the sidelines.

---

It is not for you to judge the journey of another's soul. It is for you to decide who YOU are, not who another has been or has failed to be.

---

The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek therefore, not to find out Who You Are, but seek to determine Who You Want to Be.

---

What is important in your life is what you decide is important -- and this decision will indelibly create who you are

---

If only you knew all the gifts that you bring to others. You would never feel sad again.

---

Glorify who you are today, do not condemn who you were yesterday, and dream of who you can be tomorrow.

---

If you believe the noises of the world, rather than the silences of your soul, you will be lost.

---

The struggle ends when gratitude begins.

---

Forget about the past. It does not exist, except in your memory. Drop it. And stop worrying about how you're going to get through tomorrow. Life is going on right here, right now - pay attention to that and all will be well.
