Notable quotes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

• \u201cIf you\u2019re serious about changing your life, you\u2019ll find a way. If you\u2019re not, you\u2019ll find an excuse.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cYou are responsible for what you say and do. You are not responsible for whether or not people freak out about it.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cYou are perfect. To think anything less is as pointless as a river thinking that it\u2019s got too many curves or that it moves too slowly or that its rapids are too rapid. Says who? You\u2019re on a journey with no defined beginning, middle, or end. There are no wrong twists and turns. There is just being. And your job is to be as you as you can be. This is why you\u2019re here. To shy away from who you truly are would leave the world you-less. You are the only you there is and ever will be. I repeat, you are the only you there is and ever will be. Do not deny the world its one and only chance to bask in your brilliance.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cWhat other people think about you has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cYou are loved. Massively. Ferociously. Unconditionally. The Universe is totally freaking out about how awesome you are. It\u2019s got you wrapped in a warm gorilla hug of adoration. It wants to give you everything you desire. It wants you to be happy. It wants you to see what it sees in you.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cBecause if you base your self-worth on what everyone else thinks of you, you hand all your power over to other people and become dependent on a source outside of yourself for validation. Then you wind up chasing after something you have no control over, and should that something suddenly place its focus somewhere else, or change its mind and decide you\u2019re no longer very interesting, you end up with a full-blown identity crisis.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cThere\u2019s nothing as unstoppable as a freight train full of fuck-yeah.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cAnd the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cIt never ceases to amaze me the precious time we spend chasing the squirrels around our brains, playing out our dramas, worrying about unwanted facial hair, seeking adoration, justifying our actions, complaining about slow Internet connections, dissecting the lives of idiots, when we are sitting in the middle of a full-blown miracle that is happening right here, right now.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cWe’re on a planet that somehow knows how to rotate on its axis and follow a defined path while it hurtles through space! Our hearts beat! We can see! We have love, laughter, language, living rooms, computers, compassion, cars, fire, fingernails, flowers, music, medicine, mountains, muffins!\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cImagine what our world would be like if everyone loved themselves so much that they weren\u2019t threatened by other people\u2019s opinions or skin colors or sexual preferences or talents or education or possessions or lack of possessions or religious beliefs or customs or their general tendency to just be whoever the hell they are.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cSo often, we pretend we\u2019ve made a decision when what we\u2019ve really done is signed up to try until it gets too uncomfortable.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cNever apologize for who you are. It lets the whole world down.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cWe only get to be in our bodies for a limited time, why not celebrate the journey instead of merely riding it out until it\u2019s over?\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cIf you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cWe are all perfect in our own, magnificent, fucked-up ways. Laugh at yourself. Love yourself and others. Rejoice in the cosmic ridiculousness.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cNobody who ever accomplished anything big or new or worth raising a celebratory fist in the air did it from their comfort zone. They risked ridicule and failure and sometimes even death.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cYour life is your party. You get to choose how you invite people and experiences and things into it.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cOur thoughts become our words, our words become our beliefs, our beliefs become our actions, our actions become our habits, and our habits become our realities.\u201d<\/li>
• \u201cThe only failure is quitting. Everything else is just gathering information.\u201d<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
