I want to be in a relationship where you telling me you love me is just a ceremonious validation of what you already show me.
When in a relationship, a real man doesn't make his woman jealous of others, he makes others jealous of his woman.
I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count!
Plant seeds of happiness, hope, success, and love; it will all come back to you in abundance. This is the law of nature.
I'm not crying because of you; you're not worth it. I'm crying because my delusion of who you were was shattered by the truth of who you are.
If you're not comfortable enough with yourself or with your own truth when entering a relationship, then you're not ready for that relationship.
I believe in the immeasurable power of love; that true love can endure any circumstance and reach across any distance.
Love is forgiving, accepting, moving on, embracing, and all encompassing. And if you’re not doing that for yourself, you cannot do that with anyone else.
It is only with true love and compassion that we can begin to mend what is broken in the world. It is these two blessed things that can begin to heal all broken hearts.
When you say "I" and "my" too much, you lose the capacity to understand the "we" and "our".
The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.
Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.
Cry. Forgive. Learn. Move on. Let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness.
Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.
Sometimes life knocks you on your ass... get up, get up, get up! Happiness is not the absence of problems, it's the ability to deal with them.
At the end of the day, let there be no excuses, no explanations, no regrets.
You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway.
If you hang out with chickens, you're going to cluck and if you hang out with eagles, you're going to fly.
It is important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move on.
Forget yesterday - it has already forgotten you. Don't sweat tomorrow - you haven't even met. Instead, open your eyes and your heart to a truly precious gift - today.
I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, "aw shit, he's up!
Life doesn’t get easier or more forgiving, we get stronger and more resilient.
A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.
When you hold a grudge, you want someone else’s sorrow to reflect your level of hurt but the two rarely meet.
Don't confuse poor decision-making with destiny. Own your mistakes. It’s ok; we all make them. Learn from them so they can empower you!
The beautiful journey of today can only begin when we learn to let go of yesterday.
You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it courageously.
The reason many people in our society are miserable, sick, and highly stressed is because of an unhealthy attachment to things they have no control over.
The right thing to do and the hard thing to do are usually the same.
My past has not defined me, destroyed me, deterred me, or defeated me; it has only strengthened me.
The greatest step towards a life of simplicity is to learn to let go.
If you have a goal, write it down. If you do not write it down, you do not have a goal - you have a wish.
Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up.
If you believe you can, you might. If you know you can, you will.
Happiness is not the absence of problems; it's the ability to deal with them.
Love yourself. Forgive yourself. Be true to yourself. How you treat yourself sets the standard for how others will treat you.
Judging is preventing us from understanding a new truth. Free yourself from the rules of old judgments and create the space for new understanding.
Your greatest self has been waiting your whole life; don't make it wait any longer.
If you fuel your journey on the opinions of others, you are going to run out of gas.
You have the ability to choose your reactions.
Sometimes letting go is simply changing the labels you place on an event. Looking at the same event with fresh eyes.
People will always have opinions about your decision because they're not courageous enough to take action on their opinion.
Live authentically. Why would you continue to compromise something that's beautiful to create something that is fake?
Your life is a print-out of your thoughts.
Every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.
Once your mindset changes, everything on the outside will change along with it.
A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you're not living in alignment; you're not be being true to yourself.
No matter what your history has been, your destiny is what you create today. What are you going to create?
If you are not the hero of your own story, then you're missing the whole point of your humanity.
Every single time you help somebody stand up you are helping humanity rise.
Happiness is a state of mind, a choice, a way of living; it is not something to be achieved, it is something to be experienced.
When you are living the best version of yourself, you inspire others to live the best versions of themselves.
Become the leader of your life. Lead yourself to where you want to be. Breathe life back into your ambitions, your desires, your goals, your relationships.
You’re frustrated because you keep waiting for the blooming of flowers of which you have yet to sow the seeds.
You didn't just cheat on me; you cheated on us. You didn't just break my heart; you broke our future.
I am so grateful for my troubles. As I reflect back on my life, I have come to realize that my greatest triumphs have been born of my greatest troubles.
Sometimes problems don’t require a solution to solve them; instead they require maturity to outgrow them.
Happiness is not the absence of problems, it's the ability to deal with them.
The universe doesn’t give you what you ask for with your thoughts - it gives you what you demand with your actions.
It only takes a split second to smile and forget, yet to someone that needed it, it can last a lifetime.
I promise you nothing is as chaotic as it seems. Nothing is worth diminishing your health. Nothing is worth poisoning yourself into stress, anxiety, and fear.
There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a person being themselves. Imagine going through your day being unapologetically you.
Stop giving meaningless praise and start giving meaningful action.
Don’t tell me about your god with your words. Show me about your god with your actions.
God’s word is not just to be heard and repeated, it is to be breathed, lived, and emulated with each action.
Think of the patience God has had for you and let it resonate to others. If you want a more patient world, let patience be your motto
We must transcend the illusion that money or power has any bearing on our worthiness as children of God.
No matter what the cause, God is only as willing as you are.
God didn’t give fear a body. God gave love a body.
In moments of prayer, people tend to pose as a critic and point out percieved flaws in God's art.
God is the name we give to the science we don't understand. Science is the name we give to the God we don't understand.
You are not on a journey to God; you are on a journey WITH God.
God is the composer; you are the song.
It seems to me that religion is losing momentum and God is making a comeback.
Through my choices and actions, I have learned the most effective way of speaking to God is without saying a word.
Old religious dogma attempts to convince you that you are on a journey to God, then makes you pay tolls along that roadway.
People who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will often find ways to discourage yours. Live your truth and don't EVER stop!
Accept yourself, your strengths, your weaknesses, your truths, and know what tools you have to fulfill your purpose.
Never compromise your values.
Stop lying to yourself. When we deny our own truth, we deny our own potential.
Religious structure often dilutes the spiritual experience.
The greatest enemy to fear is truth.
Never run from the truth. It is always there; it never changes – save your energy.
Your fear of the truth does not hide or dilute it.
It is our action that determines the viability of our dream.
Stop trying to explain yourself. People only understand things from their level of perception; within the parameters of their agreement with reality. Save your energy.
Scholars, theologians, and even poets have yet to be able to truly describe and touch upon the beauty, romance, and magic of a relationship built on 100% authenticity
The victim mindset dilutes the human potential. By not accepting personal responsibility for our circumstances, we greatly reduce our power to change them.
The strength of a man isn't seen in the power of his arms. It's seen in the love with which he EMBRACES you.
Your life begins to change the day you take responsibility for it.
Stop pointing fingers and placing blame on others. Your life can only change to the degree that you accept responsibility for it.
Stop waiting for the perfect day or the perfect moment... Take THIS day, THIS moment and lead it to perfection.
Happiness has to do with your mindset, not with outside circumstance.
Be happy with who you are and what you do, and you can do anything you want.
Allow yourself to enjoy each happy moment in your life.
If you want to find happiness, find gratitude.
We would do ourselves a tremendous favor by letting go of the people who poison our spirit.
Love and compassion are the mother and father of a smile. We need to create more smiles in our world today. Smiles, after all, pave the way to a happy world.
Relationships: If you put up with it, you’re going to end up with it. Set the standard you want and don’t settle for less.
Life itself is simple...it's just not easy.
When you find yourself in need of spiritual nourishment, it is in the opportunities to serve others that you will find the abundance you seek.
A grateful mindset can set you free from the prison of disempowerment and the shackles of misery.
At any given moment the choice to be happy is present- we just have to choose to be happy.
The value of a moment is immeasurable. The power of just ONE moment can propel you to success and happiness or chain you to failure and misery.
There is something beautiful about watching two people lovingly act silly together; behaving as though no one else existed.
Free yourself from the complexities of your life! A life of simplicity and happiness awaits you.
You are beautiful. Your beauty, just like your capacity for life, happiness, and success, is immeasurable.
A life of happiness, peace, and love is all within our grasp.
Do not sabotage your new relationship with your last relationship’s poison.
Live Today! Do not allow your spirit to be softened of your happiness to be limited by a day you cannot have back or a day that does not yet exist.
Just like your body and lifestyle can be healthy or unhealthy, the same is true with your beliefs. Your beliefs can be your medicine or your poison.
There is nothing worse for the lying soul than the mirror of reality.
Learn from your history, but don’t live in it.
Stop wasting your time looking for the key to happiness… the door is open and unlocked… just walk through it.
Free yourself from the burden of feeling the need to hold on to anything. Let go… you are a part of everything.
Never again will I underestimate the greatness inside of me just because of the hate and limited thinking inside of others.
The greatest love stories are not those in which love is only spoken, but those in which it is acted upon.
Be consistent in your dedication to showing your gratitude to others. Gratitude is a fuel, a medicine, and spiritual and emotional nourishment.
Stop trying to 'fix' yourself; you're NOT broken! You are perfectly imperfect and powerful beyond measure.
Everything is easier said than done. Wanting something is easy. Saying something is easy. The challenge and the reward are in the doing.
Challenges in life can either enrich you or poison you. You are the one who decides.
You are the point of origin for everything in your world: you set the standard for yourself.
You would not be here TODAY if YESTERDAY was your defining moment. LIVE THIS DAY and move towards your dreams.
The more I understand the mind and the human experience, the more I begin to suspect there is no such thing as unhappiness; there is only ungratefulness.
The universe doesn't give you what you want in your mind; it gives you what you demand with your actions.
Don't wait for other people to be loving, giving, compassionate, grateful, forgiving, generous, or friendly... lead the way!
Dream your dream; and realize that you are more than just the dreamer, you are the point of origin for its reality.
It is in the balancing of your spirituality with your humanity that you will find immeasurable happiness, success, good health, and love.
There is a difference between talented people and gifted people.Talented people are good AT something; Gifted people ARE that something.
To embark on the journey towards your goals and dreams requires bravery. To remain on that path requires courage. The bridge that merges the two is commitment.
Don't nourish your fears more than you nourish your hopes.
Get out of your own way… stop the paralysis by analysis… decide what you want, create a simple plan, and get moving!
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness... but only when you pay your taxes? That means your freedom is rented, leased, & not unalienable.
The disempowered mind believes dreams come true; the empowered mind knows you bring your dreams to life.
My scars tell a story. They are a reminder of times when life tried to break me, but failed. They are markings of where the structure of my character was welded.
Intent not followed by action is an insult to your design. Decide what you want, create a plan, and get your ass out there!
The most powerful relationship you will ever have is the relationship with yourself. It is in this relationship that you set the standard for all others.
Not matter what your sacred or religious book is, it's not how well you know the book, it's how well you're in alignment with the author.
If you behave in a manner that poisons your relationship, don’t be surprised when it dies.
I am who I am because the tears of my past have watered the magnificence of my present.
Tomorrow will never call to ask your opinion; you don't control it. Stop allowing today's possibilities to be robbed by tomorrow's insecurities.
Your life isn't behind you; your memories are behind you. Your life is ALWAYS ahead of you. Today is a new day - seize it!
Blame is the creed of the disempowered.
Your fear is 100% dependent on you for its survival.
In every ancient religious and sacred text, faith is a verb; a thing to be demonstrated. It is in modern days that we have diluted faith from an act to a philosophy.
Faith is the poetry of our dreams; action is the builder of our reality.
Recognize that throughout this beautiful day,you have an incredible amount of opportunities to move your life into the direction you want it to go.
YOU are your love of a lifetime.
It's not about what I SEE for our future, or humanity; It's about what I DO for our future and humanity.
While spirituality provides an efficient and endless fuel for your mind and body, you must burn that fuel with human action towards your goals, dreams, and desires.
Understanding the beauty of our humanity unlocks the power of our spirituality.
On your quest to spirituality it is often required to suspend your rationality; but true spirituality asks that you enhance your rationality.
Set the standard! Stop expecting others to show you love, acceptance, commitment, & respect when you don't even show that to yourself.
Do what you think is right. Don't let people make the decision of right or wrong for you.
Your opinion is not my reality.
I am not a victim. No matter what I have been through, I'm still here. I have a history of victory.
Don't give up! It's not over. The universe is balanced. Every set-back bears with it the seeds of a come-back.
Stop blaming outside circumstances for your inside chaos.
When was the last time you woke up and realized that today could be the best day of your life?
It’s a lack of clarity that creates chaos and frustration. Those emotions are poison to any living goal.
Don't let the tall weeds cast a shadow on the beautiful flowers in your garden.
Simplify your life. You don't grow spiritual, you shrink spiritual.
You cannot continue on the same path and arrive at a different destination. Make the choice to have your actions reflect your goals.
It's up to you today to start making healthy choices. Not choices that are just healthy for your body, but healthy for your mind.
Do not let another day go by where your dedication to other people's opinions is greater than your dedication to your own emotions!
The power to change your life lies in the simplest of steps.
Fear can only grow in darkness. Once you face fear with light, you win.
We can't undo a single thing we have ever done, but we can make decisions today that propel us to the life we want and towards the healing we need.
You can't just wish change; you have to live the change in order for it to become a reality.
Reading the Bible will help you get to know the word, but it’s when you put it down and live your life that you get to know the author.
Do you love yourself enough to BE what you love yourself enough to WANT?
One of the most healing things you can do is recognize where in your life you are your own poison.
By reacting from fear instead of responding from love, you inject poison directly into the veins of your relationship.
You are where you are right now because of the actions you've taken, or maybe, the inaction you've taken.
If you don’t know exactly where you’re going, how will you know when you get there?
The purpose of fear is to raise your awareness not to stop your progress.
NEVER be surprised by your own success!
Your agreement with reality defines your life.
Success is something you experience when you act accordingly. Success is not something you have, it's something you do.
When we replace a sense of service and gratitude with a sense of entitlement and expectation, we quickly see the demise of our relationships, society, and economy.
Stop allowing your day-to-day life to be clouded by busy nothingness.
Search for contentment in each person you meet.
If you intend to change, decide what you want and live your life accordingly.
Change is the parent of progress.
Today stretches ahead of you waiting to be shaped. You are the sculptor who gets to do the shaping. What today will be like is up to you.
Today is yours to shape. Create a masterpiece!
Live your vision and demand your success.
Interrupt your thoughts of "I should", with your action of doing.
Sometimes you're drowning yourself in your own words.
A lack of clarity could put the brakes on any journey to success.
Make a pact with yourself today to not be defined by your past. Instead, shake things up today! Live through today. Don’t just exist through it - LIVE through it!
Live life with a purpose and live it full out.
Never confuse someone else's inability to do something with its inability to be done.
Start shaping your own day. Start walking your own walk. This journey is yours, take charge of it. Stop giving other people the power to shape your life.
When you truly embrace your human impermanence you connect with the power you have, and influence you have, over the time you have.

With one kind gesture you can change a life. One person at a time you can change the world. One day at a time we can change everything.
The future is greatly different than your life now, the actions that you take must also be greatly different. You cannot do the same thing and get something different.
Fear has the role we give it. We are able to empower or poison ourselves to whatever degree we want. This is the beauty of our design.
You‘ve been given the innate power to shape your life.
If you have to ask if you’ve done enough, you haven’t. Each day brings with it the opportunity to do more than you did yesterday.
The time has come to harness the blessed power within us and to use it to transcend from our current existence into a more empowered reality.
It's not always what we don't know that gets in our way; sometimes it's what we think we know that keeps us from learning.
Once you understand how powerful you are within, you exponentially increase the power and potentiality of everything outside of you.
Do the best you can, with what you can, while you can, and success in inevitable.
The world is my church. My actions are my prayer. My behavior is my creed.
We can’t continuously be a society of well-wishers. We must take action to bring those wishes to fruition.
Success is something you experience when you act accordingly. Success is not something you have, it’s something you do.
An empowered life begins with serious personal questions about oneself. Those answers bare the seeds of success.

Relationships fail when people take their own insecurities and project them as their partner's flaws.
Be careful… not all are what they seem. Some people pretend to be the beach, but they’re actually quicksand.

Life is too short to not kick fear in the ass and allow yourself to love again.

If you have to ask them to help carry the bricks, they're not the ones to build with.
