Famous David Archuleta Quotes

“I hope that you can finish reading this book with the feeling of having a little more understanding about yourself or someone else in your life. I hope that you have more compassion for yourself, and that you allow yourself to make mistakes. Remember: Mistakes are how you grow. And as you make a mess of them, like I have, you’ll realize, like I have, that many things you thought were mistakes weren’t mistakes at all. And you’ll be free from any chains, any judgments, any misunderstandings that people may have placed on you or that you’ve placed on yourself. Your life is in your hands. That’s what I’ve learned. I’m no longer trapping myself in a very small cage. I feel free.”

“Once you let yourself believe that you've gotten to the top, you've lost sight of the real goal. Which is to keep climbing no matter what. And by climbing, I don't mean trying to out do yourself with even more accomplishments. Instead, what I mean is that just when we think we have done something well, we should start looking at the other areas of our lives that need attention.”

“I like to believe that you don't need to reach a certain goal to be happy. I prefer to think that happiness is always there, and that when things don't go the way we might like them to, it's a sign from above that something even better is right around the corner.”

“So as I think back on it now, I think it is safe to say that music is something you both hear and feel. I also realize that feelings change frequently and that for the most part, they are not a constant. They change from high to low, happy to sad, content to ecstatic and back down again. Not all music has the same purpose, but most music makes you feel "something.”

“The best thing you can do to set yourself apart is just be yourself. If you're fake, you know people find out who you are later, it's like, 'Well that's not who we thought you were.' Being yourself is where you feel most comfortable and people get, you know, they feel that connection the best. That's the best way to go. You always have to be yourself.”
