"Grudges probably harm those who harbor them more than those at whom they are directed. So if only for your own sake, avoid registering grudges, and if you have a grudge list, tear it up!"

Everything Happens For A Reason

"Everything that happens, happens for a reason. What looks like a boulder on the path, interfering with a steady journey is there to move you to the next place. What looks like a detour is often a golden nugget on your path. Look for them. Save them. They are, when you look back, what makes the journey to your New Story even sweeter."

Comparison Robs Our Joy

"Comparison robs our joy. This habit hinders our happiness more often than any other self-sabotaging technique. Comparison is sneaky, cunning, and manipulative. It will walk around with us and rule our thoughts if we are not careful."

Some Way Somehow You’ve Survive
