“The more vividly you consider how you want your world to be, the more real and effective tools you will have for making it so.”

Your destiny is to fulfill those things upon which you focus most intently.

Enjoy doing nothing, and you can enjoy doing anything. Enjoy having nothing, and you can enjoy whatever you have.

Take your mind off the problems for a moment, and focus on the positive possibilities. Consider how very much you are able to do.

The more closely you get in touch with your dreams, the more able you are to make them real.

If you could make the world exactly to your liking, consider very specifically just how that world would be. If you could spend your time doing precisely what you wish, how would the moments of your life be lived?

Don’t lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations.

When was the last time you spent a quiet moment just doing nothing – just sitting and looking at the sea, or watching the wind blowing the tree limbs, or waves rippling on a pond, a flickering candle or children playing in the park?

You’ve done it before and you can do it now. See the positive possibilities. Redirect the substantial energy of your frustration and turn it into positive, effective, unstoppable determination.

Excellence is not a skill, it’s an attitude.

Dare to visualize a world in which your most treasured dreams have become true.

Put your energy into building what is creative, valuable and empowering. And you won’t have to constantly fight against what is destructive and draining.

If you so choose, the challenges can make you stronger. If you so choose, the disappointments can make you more determined.

It doesn’t matter how much you want. What really matters is how much you want it. The extent and complexity of the problem does not matter was much as does the willingness to solve it.

To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return.

Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality.

There are plenty of difficult obstacles in your path. Don’t allow yourself to become one of them.

I like it when my mother smiles. And I especially like it when I make her smile.

It doesn’t. What matters is what you make. Whether it’s a cake for bingo night or a costume for a saint or a wall of water-whatever you pour into this life is what makes you rich.

I am no trouble at all. You could press me into dough and make sugar cookies out of me, I’ve been so sweet.

He makes so many impact plays and changes the game a lot.

If Satan can’t make you bad, he’ll make you busy.

He died to make you holy. You are not your own.

They are a part of every decision I make. They motivate me to be the best me.

I would always just sort of pick up instruments and make noise with ’em.
