“You’ve come to this juncture in your life merely because something in you kept saying, you deserve to be happy. You were born to add something, to add value to this world, to simply be the best that you can be. Every single thing that you’ve been through, every single moment that you’ve come through, were to all prepare you for this moment right now. Now you get that you are the creator of your destiny. Imagine what you can do from this day forward with what you now know. What will you do with the moment? How will you seize the moment? No one else can dance your dance. No one else can sing your song. No one else can write your story. Who you are, what you do, begins right now.”
– Lisa Nichols, from the film, The Secret
"Be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. Make all your friends feel there is something special in them. Look at the sunny side of everything. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Be as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others. Be too big for worry and too noble for anger."
- Christian D. Larsen (The Daily Love 9/12/11)
Be you, fully and richly, when and where you are. Don't wait for your lunch break or for the weekend or for conditions to be just right.You don't have to be sitting on a tropical beach to experience bliss. You don't have to have a six-bedroom house full of the most stylish possessions to feel satisfied with your life. Your living presence is far more valuable than any place you could go or any object you could own. Your choice of attitude is what will make the biggest difference in the way you experience this day. The joy you feel does not come from what you extract out of life. The joy you feel is the joy you choose to give to life. Right now is your opportunity to be filled with richness and meaning. Whatever you are doing can serve as a pathway to fulfillment if you so choose.
There is no need to put conditions on your happiness. This is the day, this is the place, and this is the moment to live it.
-- Ralph Marston
"There is nothing for you to go back and live over, or fix, or feel regret about now. Every part of your life has unfolded just right. And so - now - knowing all that you know from where you now stand, now what do you want? The answers are now coming forth to you. Go forth in joy, and get on with it."
- Esther Hicks, best-selling author and speaker (From The Daily Love: 2/21/11)
"You can't ask for what you want unless you know what it is. A lot of people don't know what they want or they want much less than they deserve. First you have figure out what you want. Second, you have to decide that you deserve it. Third, you have to believe you can get it. And, fourth, you have to have the guts to ask for it."

"Having it all" doesn't mean having everything, all at once, all the time. "Having it all" means taking yourself seriously. It means knowing yourself well enough to find your purpose in life. It means knowing what needs to change when you sense that you've lost that purpose. It means having faith to believe that change is possible and having the courage to make those changes. - Marcus Buckingham, Find Your Strongest Life
