“Joy isn’t just an outcome; it’s a strategy. The happiest and most impactful individuals cultivate habits that feed their soul. From practicing gratitude and fostering authentic relationships to pursuing work that lights them up.”

“I do not judge the quality of my work by the feedback obtained from the masses, for if the masses knew how to judge wisely, would not have supported so much madness throughout human history; I judge my work through the many attacks the devil launches on me, by using possessed souls during the process of creation, and the viciousness of such attacks. It is in the most poisonous insults that I find the elixir of my self-worth.”

“God always opens new doors in the darkest rooms. Those doors are called miracles and the dark rooms are called fears. And you may think that you can push this darkness away with the light of knowledge, but you will never have enough knowledge, if not impelled by the force of faith. Therefore, one can say that knowledge increases confidence in the future, but it is with faith that we can create any multitude of futures, including the ones we considered impossible or did not even consider.”

“God blesses us with so many gifts that it is, in a way, ungrateful of us to suffer. We can use our efforts, resilience, persistence, as well our capacity to dream and envision, to apply faith to our journey and reach our goals despite any momentary barriers or difficult outcome we may face. Ultimately, time and freedom are more important than anything else and both can’t be taken from us. When you pray, you take the freedom to yourself and, when you live in hope, you gain time. That time may not be seen in the present but will come as a new future. And every loss reveals the potential for a greater victory. For there is no meaning in suffering for not having receivers to the fruits of our creation. Likewise, we should not suffer when we are receivers of what is created.”
