“When you’re comfortable and content with who you are, the voices of others who try and define, control or direct you are not important.”

“Saying thanks to the world, and acknowledging your own accomplishments, is a great way to feel good and stay positive.”

“To trust the slow work of the sacred is to discover that the ground has always been there. That it was holding us before we noticed it. That the peace we were searching for in the resolution of our circumstances was available, all along, beneath them — in the stillness we kept moving too fast to find.”

“A positive attitude is most easily arrived at through a deliberate and rational analysis of what’s required to manifest unwavering positive thought patterns. First, reflect on the actual, present condition of your mind. In other words, is the mind positive or not? We’ve all met individuals who perceive themselves as positive people but don’t appear as such. Since the mind is both invisible and intangible, it’s therefore easier to see the accurate characteristics of the mind through a person’s words, deeds, and posture. For example, if we say, “It’s absolutely freezing today! I’ll probably catch a cold before the end of the day!” then our words expose a negative attitude. But if we say, “The temperature is very cold” (a simple statement of fact), then our expressions, and therefore attitude, are not negative. Sustaining an alert state in which self-awareness becomes possible gives us a chance to discover the origins of negativity. In doing so, we also have an opportunity to arrive at a state of positiveness, so that our words and deeds are also positive, making others feel comfortable, cheerful, and inspired.”
