Awareness creates positive action and reduces tremendous amounts of reaction. 

When you understand yourself you know what to do. 

When you understand others you know what not to do. 

Extremes kill. 

We need fitness, not over exertion to the point if injury or death. 

We need water, not too much that we drown. 

We need food, not too much that we get and stay fat. 

We need confidence, but not to the point of arrogance. 

We need love, but not to the degree that we forget to make rational decisions.

Every good thing, is good in moderation.  

 

You can’t let go until you admit you are the one that is holding it. 

In order to let go of pain or sadness or grief or anxiety (or any other “it”), you need to admit it is you that is holding it in place, and forcing it to stay around.

Once you let go, it leaves. 

Excellence determines quality. Quality determines longevity. 

If our morals are of the highest excellence, our morals will outlast the storms of life. 

High moral excellence is the definition of virtue. As we seek virtue, our morals will rise. 

Whatever you give, they will want more. Physical, Mental, Spiritual… 

So give kindness, charity, hope and faith… 

Knowledge cannot be applied correctly without humility, that is why humility is the foundation of Wisdom. 

Who you are is your decision, it is your internal principles and beliefs combined with action. 

What you are is just labels from others, outside perception and is not based on truth or reality. 

BE WHO YOU were meant to be, don’t worry about WHAT others label you as. 

If you work hard enough, if you love strong enough, and if you pray faithfully enough – then you will find that your sacrifice has been rewarded. 

Thinking long enough and deep enough allows you understand. 

Understanding provides the personal roadmap to meaningful action. 

Action helps us use the power of courage to live our purpose.

Courage creates our desired future. 

Ignore responsibilities that are not yours. Focus on your tasks and life turns positive. 

Expecting others to adjust drives away happiness and fills us with resentment and anguish.
