"If you want something, you have to go for it. You don’t necessarily have to sacrifice everything (sometimes you do) but you do have to make a firm decision to take action. It’s no good saying you want to give up smoking if you just carry on lighting up and thinking how nice it would be if you could stop. Do something about it."
-- Richard Templar
"Stress can keep us stuck in a place where we can’t focus on anything else other than the source of our stress. I find that it affects my memory and focus, and meditation is a great way to manage this."
-- Trinny Woodall
"You can choose right now to create courage within yourself. All it takes is the dedication required to apply the practices that follow on a daily basis. When combined with a strong enough “why”, there will be no end to the amount of courage you will be able to generate."

"I do think when you focus too much on a financial gain, however, it doesn’t create good energy. It can make you feel fear because it involves putting a certain value on what you deem to be success. So while financial goals are important – we all want to feel financially stable and money is a fact of life – they shouldn’t pull all of our focus."
-- Trinny Woodall
"Concentrating on one area of your life two days a week feels long enough to experience the possibilities of change, and to feel that potential permeate the rest of the week."
-- Emma Cook
"The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."
-- Nelson Mandela
"This is a small difference with huge implications. Each of us has a battle going on within. We want to look good to others, but we also want to learn and grow. However, it is quite difficult to do both at the same time. If we want to look good, we are unlikely to put ourselves in positions where we may make mistakes and fail. But aren’t these the very situations where we are likely to learn and grow the most? To resolve this battle, we end up developing neural connections that cause us to focus on one over the other: looking good or learning and growing."
-- Ryan Gottfredson
"Why waste time proving over and over how great you are, when you could be getting better?"
-- Carol Dweck
"You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level."
-- Eckhart Tolle
