“Fear wins or Freedom wins, and I choose Freedom.”

The time you want the map, is before you enter the woods.

Why having been endowed with the courageous heart of a lion, do we live as mice?

Ask not what you are getting from the world but, rather, what you are giving to the world.

Selecting your next challenge in life, choose one that is meaningful and will demand your complete concentration.

Aliveness doesn’t happen in silence. Aliveness doesn’t happen in repression. Aliveness happens in action.

If your guard is up, let it down. If you’ve constructed a defensive wall to protect yourself and keep all the bad guys out, don’t forget who that wall also prevents from getting in – the good guys.

As soon as you seek to inspire others, it inspires the best in you.

We have to reconceptualize and understand that the act of pursuing our dreams and being our full selves is what allows us to feel alive.

The more we are true to ourselves, the more we can connect with and contribute to the world.

Optimists are happier in life for a reason.

It is the main motivation of mankind to be free, to express our true selves and pursue our dreams without restriction–to experience what may be called Personal Freedom.

A lot of people have the ambition, but they never ask themselves, Do I really believe I can do this?

A high performer is someone who says, ‘I want to be the best at what I’m doing.’

To stand emotionally open before the world & give of our hearts without fear of hurt or demand of reciprocity – this is the ultimate act of human courage.

To me, meditation is simply silencing or focusing the mind.

Ambition has to be joined with expectancy. A sense that you have a dream for yourself that you believe can happen.

The Universe totally supports every thought I choose to think and to believe. I have unlimited choices about what I think. I choose balance, harmony, and peace, and I express it in my life.

It is not necessary to accept the choices handed down to you by life as you know it.

Attitude is a choice. What you think you can do, whether positive or negative, confident or scared, will most likely happen.

Determination can be a battle or a thrill. Choose to be thrilled.

A man who procrastinates in his choosing will inevitably have his choice made for him by circumstance.

We choose our gardens based on what will bloom, and we wait out the seasons, until they do. And sometimes, love needs patience too.

We have a choice. We have two options as human beings. We have a choice between conversation and war. That’s it. Conversation and violence. And faith is a conversation stopper.

One cannot desire freedom from the Cross when one is especially chosen for the Cross.
