Our lives can only be told as our story. To take the story out of our experience removes all context and meaning. Our stories can be written any way we choose, and more importantly, our stories can be told any way we choose. How we choose to tell our story in the present has a much bigger effect on what happens next than how we have told our story in the past. As we change our present story to match our future goals, our future changes right before our eyes – for everyone to see.

If they are worth it to you, and you show it — they will find a way to show you why you believe in them.

Encouragement goes a long way.

The more responsibility you take on, the more meaning you find.

If both sides are willing, all communication problems can be solved with love expressed as care.

Logic and reason can justify and validate any “personal revelation.” The problem is that when this revelation is counter to truth, all the logic is actually just a lie. The real confusion comes when we try to rationalize our feelings and desires and then label them as personal truth. While truth can be found personally, truth doesn’t change, and therefore when individual truth goes against eternal truth, there is misalignment. Without alignment, there is always confusion.

Victims always bring up the reasons why truth doesn’t apply to them.

Trust is earned not just by skill but by attitude as well. A great way to gain trust is to not talk negatively about others. Show kindness and respect, especially when they are not around.

If you don’t believe in others, it is because you don’t believe in yourself.

The best questions don’t need to be answered. When we hear them, we already know the answer in an instant. That is the power, that is why they are the best. The questions ignite inside of us feelings and thoughts we were hiding or searching for. Once we understand the question, we simultaneously understand the answer.

What we feel is more important than why – at first. The “why” doesn’t matter until our “what” is validated.
