When you meet someone what has different values than you, silently say, “Thank you.” After all, their purpose is to remind you of your values and to encourage you to live your life by them.

Focus on what you can do rather than what you can’t do. When you focus on what you can’t do, you’re living in the past. When you focus on what you can do, you’re living in the present moment.

Random acts of kindness are never random. They happen because your heart tells you that each person needs a kind word, a kind smile, or a kind helping hand.

Together we can change those darn negative thoughts, because together we’re mighty and invincible.

The difference between those who can and those who can’t lies in what they believe they can do.

Why waste your time dreaming small, when you can dream big and produce big results.

There really are no lessons to learn from those bad times, because lessons imply that you’ll either pass or fail life. Instead, there are opportunities for you to make different choices in life. Now that’s exciting and hopeful. And, I’ll let you in on a secret. You’ll always pass.

This morning I looked in your heart and I found love. The love of life. The love of others. The love of nature. The love of animals. The love you have for yourself. It was awesome.

Thoughts form your reality. They focus the mind’s attention. They cleverly attract the emotions that support them, and they create the attitudes that color how you see life. Choose them wisely, for they can create the life you imagine, or they can wreck havoc in your life.

Life is just one big experience. Rich with opportunity. Full of unlimited potential, and everyday offers you the chance to prove to yourself just how courageous, inspirational, remarkable, and magnificent you really are. I love those qualities about you 🙂
