"To believe is to accept that something is real without having any proof."
Written in 2010 by Daniel Berkwitt --- Illinois
Our limiting beliefs tend to hold us back from our intentions and prohibit us from manifesting what we truly want in life. I continue to struggle with this at times but I always chose to believe! Be sure about what you really want. Tell yourself you deserve! Yes, you deserve it regardless of your past or your current situation. You can have anything you want in life. Anything is possible! The universe wants to give you everything you desire! I want you to have it too!
"From an energy perspective, becoming conscious requires stamina. It is extremely challenging, and often very painful, to evaluate our own personal beliefs and separate ourselves from those that no longer support our growth."

"Never retreat in the face of difficulties. Advance as conditions permit. If conditions don't permit, create those conditions."

When I first read this quote, I was moved to do those things that I could not do before. It has been working for me and I know it will do the same for others even as they read it.
"When someone becomes a part of us, letting go is a loss we feel. We naturally don't like change and we don't like to feel sadness or loss so we tend to settle for what makes us feel better, even if it's in a failing situation and in our rational minds we know we shouldn't. You have to be willing to experience the loss and let go. You have to decide that you want more for yourself and when you have, that's when you begin to heal and time will do the rest."

Self written to my sister... it helped her move on.

Pain is one of life's checkpoints where we slow down from all the rush and look at situations with a deeper view.
"Look forward to tomorrow because only then you will be able to fix the mistakes you made today. With every sunrise, rises a new opportunity to succeed."

"I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all to matter, to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all."
Leo Rosten --- Submitted by George Wachira --- Kenya
"Your conscience teaches your mind how to 'think', your heart how to 'feel', your soul how to 'obey' and most importantly your body how to 'perform' extraordinary 'acts' of charity and human kindness toward your fellow man."

"Mistakes are costly? BULLS**T! Mistakes are PRICELESS! If you don't know why, you haven't made enough yet."

"The only limitations to your success will be those you accept and those you place upon yourself!"

This is one of the affirmations that I share with all those who attend any of my Peak Performance Symposiums. I've had so many people share with me how this simple quote (when used as a daily affirmation) had such a profound positive effect on their life and career.
"We all have abundance within us; it's just how we program it. Wake up to the greatness residing in you and you will see how life gets seduced by you. All that is required is a pinch of talent and oodles of passion and positivism. That is when you walk an extraordinary path!"

This is a reflection of my approach towards life. This is me!
"Ultimately, throughout our life, we become either our own worst enemy or our own very best friend. This love or hate relationship is quietly inside each of us. This relationship with ourselves is affecting everything that we do, every thought we have and choice of actions we take, or don't take, daily. It is greatly linked to how we treat and love others in our life. This relationship with ourselves is always against our self progression or it is for it. Which one are you becoming?"

This is one of life's ultimate truths.
"What is difficult for some people is not difficult for others and the difference is in their attitude. Everything is possible when you believe in yourself and when you blindly believe that it can be done, when you have a burning desire and a stubborn and persistent attitude to succeed."

"Love is giving all of yourself, everything, with no hope or expectation of return."
Author Unknown --- Submitted by Lauri McKinney --- Texas
When I was 19 years old, I had my first son. When I was 21, I divorced his father (my high school sweetheart). On the way home from the court hearing, my attorney told me there was one thing in life that I must always remember. That's when I heard that quote. It's stuck with me ever since!!!
"Life is a circle. With the universe being infinite, all things will happen. Infinity can be thought of as a circle. This means everything that happens, from the smallest to the largest scale, has already happened and will happen again. With this in mind we know that everything we do, we will do again as an infinite loop. So we must ask ourselves is what we are doing something that we want to do again? Make the right choices in life and it will be a good choice forever."

This has always been a great motivator in my life.
"Don't tell me you can't do it; tell me you will try! Don't tell me that you have tried and failed! Tell me that you attempted something new, for there is no failing in life just setbacks! For I know the feeling of that fire burning and I know the feeling of taking one step forward and two steps back, but remember tomorrow is another day!"
