“To get to this place of a warrior’s courage, we must give up the stories that have ruled our lives and shatter the self-image we created to affirm our story.”

We each need to become our own hero.

Our society nurtures the illusion that all the rewards go to the people who are perfect. But many of us are finding out that trying to be perfect is costly.

When you are in harmonywith yourself, you’ll be in harmony with everyone else.

Your life will be transformed when you make peace with your shadow.

We are all stronger than we can ever imagine being. Every choice matters starting with today. And today, I choose to live.

Every important choice we make is being guided by one of two places: either it is an act of faith or it is an act of fear. Faith opens the door to a new future.

Like the lotus flower that is born out of mud, we must honor the darkest parts of ourselves and the most painful of our life’s experiences, because they are what allow us to birth our most beautiful self.

In order to access a warrior’s courage, we must explore why we are so committed to our story and what we are afraid will happen if we give it up.

Emotional turmoil can be a powerful catalyst to reconnect us with our divine nature. It propels us into a journey of self discovery and urges us to learn how to love and accept our entire being.

Being present means being completely aware of all that is. It means you’re not in denial, you’re not pretending, and you’re not avoiding.

Before we can experience the pure & serene state of love, we must learn how to give forgiveness – to ourselves & to others. Have you forgiven yourself?

It is your soul’s journey to enroll the ego in the quest for the ultimate victory – the evolution of your own individual consciousness.

Resentments lodge inside you, causing you to lose touch with your inherent worth, your joy, and – more important – your God-loving heart.

Do not wait another day to become fully engaged in your life, to learn to love and to forgive, and to live with greater purpose & meaning.

I define God as an energy. A spiritual energy. It has no denomination, it has no judgment, it has an energy that when we’re connected to it we know why we’re here and what we’re here to do.

The world mirrors yourself back to you. If you love, nourish, and appreciate yourself internally it will show up in your external life. If you want more love, give more love to yourself. If you want acceptance, accept yourself.

You can’t test courage cautiously.

There are no easy answers’ but there are simple answers. We must have the courage to do what we know is morally right.

But sometimes it takes more courage to live than to shoot yourself.

The strong survive, but the courageous triumph.

I was bold in the pursuit of knowledge, never fearing to follow truth and reason to whatever results they led.

We must substitute courage for caution.

Those who have a strong sense of love and belonging have the courage to be imperfect.

What we know matters but who we are matters more.
