“You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway.”

If you are not the hero of your own story, then you’re missing the whole point of your humanity.

The reason many people in our society are miserable, sick, and highly stressed is because of an unhealthy attachment to things they have no control over.

If you hang out with chickens, you’re going to cluck and if you hang out with eagles, you’re going to fly.

Your life is a print-out of your thoughts.

Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up.

A broken heart bleeds tears.

When in a relationship, a real man doesn’t make his woman jealous of others, he makes others jealous of his woman.

There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a person being themselves. Imagine going through your day being unapologetically you.

If you believe you can, you might. If you know you can, you will.

Free yourself from the complexities and drama of your life. Simplify. Look within. Within ourselves we all have the gifts and talents we need to fulfill the purpose we’ve been blessed with.

Stop blaming outside circumstances for your inside chaos.

Happiness is a state of mind, a choice, a way of living; it is not something to be achieved, it is something to be experienced.

If you have a goal, write it down. If you do not write it down, you do not have a goal – you have a wish.

You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it courageously.

I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.

Stop giving your life away to other people.

True genius, in strategy or anywhere, lies in self-control, self-mastery, presence of mind, fluidity of thought.

There is never a moment when God is not in control. Relax! He’s got you covered.

I feel myself inhabited by a force or being — very little known to me. It gives the orders; I follow.

When things are beyond your control and there is nothing you can do,why worry

I’m gradually beginning to feel that we Chinese need to be controlled. If we’re not being controlled, we’ll just do what we want.

Happiness is really just about four things: perceived control, perceived progress, connectedness (number and depth of your relationships), and vision/meaning (being part of something bigger than yourself).

There are far more good answers “out there” than there are in you.

Miracles may be, for anything we know to the contrary, phenomena of a higher order of God’s laws, superior to, and, under certain conditions, controlling the inferior order known to us as the ordinary laws of nature.
