“Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare”

Understand that consistency is essential; nothing is achieved without it.

“There are certain people who make the world a better place just by being in it. You are one of those people. I love you my friend.”

“You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.”

“That is what compassion does. It challenges our assumptions, our sense of self-limitation, worthlessness, of not having a place in the world, our feelings of loneliness and estrangement. These are narrow, constrictive states of mind. As we develop compassion, our hearts open.”

“We must understand that sadness is an ocean, and sometimes we drown, while other days we are forced to swim.”

You have to remember that the hard days are what make you stronger.

A winner is a dreamer who never gives up

In disagreements with loved ones, deal with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past as that will only cause unnecessary resentment.

“Characterize people by their actions, and you will never be fooled by their words.”

“Sometimes we can feel like we are not good enough, but it is important to remember that we have nothing to prove others. Love and respect yourself each and every day.”

“They are not your friend unless they have defended you in your absence.”
