More Quotes by Alan Cohen
Personal growth is not a matter of learning new information but of unlearning old limits.
Use pain as a stepping stone, not a camp ground.
We believe we are hurt when we don't receive love. But that is not what hurts us. Our pain comes when we do not give love. We were born to love. You might say that we are divinely created love machines. We function most powerfully when we are giving love. The world has led us to believe that our wellbeing is dependent on other people loving us. But this is kind of upside down thinking that has caused so many of our problems. The truth is our well being is dependent on our giving love. It is not about what comes back; it is about what goes out!

The people who matter will recognize who you are.
Life is a gift from God, an unlimited series of opportunities to find the good in ourselves and others. There is good in everything, if we are willing to see it.
Your life is not a problem to be solved, but an adventure to be enjoyed. You are doing better than you think.
Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.
Be kind to everyone, and don't leave yourself out of the equation.
Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.
