"The person in life that you will always be with the most is yourself. Because even when you are with others, you are still with yourself, too! When you wake up in the morning, you are with yourself, laying in bed at night you are with yourself, walking down the street in the sunlight you are with yourself. What kind of person do you want to walk down the street with? What kind of person do you want to wake up in the morning with? What kind of person do you want to see at the end of the day before you fall asleep? Because that person is yourself, and it's your responsibility to be that person you want to be with. I know I want to spend my life with a person who knows how to let things go, who's not full of hate, who's able to smile and be carefree. So that's who I have to be."

"Everyone is naturally endowed with two common but great gifts: mind and time. It's up to us to utilize both of them positively or negatively. I am urging that you use them positively rather than negatively because however they are used presently will determine what will become of you in the future. I mean, if you use mind/time positively today, definitely you will reap the rewards, subsequently, financially and otherwise. And the reverse will be the case if you do misuse your mind/time."

"Here's to the ones who know their calling and that it's greater than a cubicle or a paycheck will ever be. A calling to be a light. To be a lantern. To be a match in the darkness. A flashlight in the power outage. A bright star in the sky of a night that lost hope."

"Taking a step back through failure or a mistake is like being so close to a long wall with only one door. You need to take a step back to see it. Life is like this is the pursuit of our dreams and goals. Remember that you are closer to your dreams and goals than you realize. One merely needs to see the door and open it."

"Choose what you want on your plate daily. If you don't want strife, anger, bitterness, gossip, back-biting, then say no thanks when someone offers to serve you a helping. Instead fill your plate with love, kindness, joy, sympathy, and encouragement. Eating on these will fill your stomach with compassion and a desire to see the good in mankind."

I typed this out on an old typewriter when I was 13yrs old (25yrs ago!) and I still have the same piece of paper taped into a book and have often looked at it and quoted it. As the years passed, I forgot where I'd even got it from. At 13yrs old, something about this quote grabbed me and has kept me going ever since.
"Your problem is how you are going to spend this one and precious life you have been issued. Whether you're going to spend it trying to look good and creating the illusion that you have power over circumstances, or whether you are going to taste it, enjoy it and find out the truth about who you are."

"For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same; there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."

"Life is like a boat and you're the sailor. You control your direction and the past is like the wake that the boat leaves behind and slowly disappears. The future is the open ocean you have yet to discover. Life will have its waves and you can sail them. And as you get closer to land (your goal) those waves will get more powerful and push you home."
