Belief and hope create the magic that powers faith. 

Faith in what is true is what allows us to be free, find success, and succeed. 

Avoiding big mistakes,

avoiding big trouble, 

avoiding serious calamity, 

is a much more useful skill than any type of fixing ability. 

Yet, learning to fix problems and get out of complex dilemmas is a vital and required skill for success in life, relationships, and career. 

The only things that can touch us are the things we let in. 

The only things that affect us are the things we allow and accept. 

Thoughts are things. 

Emotions are things. 

Feelings are things. 

Ideas are things. 

Words are things.

Pain, anger, regret, fear, anxiety, and sadness are emotions and feelings that are created from the meanings we assign toward things and the perceptions we have about things. 

It is our own opinion that creates the labels that determine all the meaning. 

Our life is our world and is a creation of our opinion of the things we allow in. 

Creativity and desire form imagination. When we let our imagination guide us, and then fill that creation with purpose it leads to vision. A true vision is the future reality made known today, with the inspiration and motivation to make it happen. 

Self-confidence is built off the foundation of successful experiences. 

Self-esteem is built from the knowledge of your ultimate purpose and intrinsic self-worth. 

A pure supplicant forgets or is too lazy to take action. 

An independent self-reliant never asks for help. 

The best is a combination of both, someone who assertively does everything they can while humbly asking for all the help they need. 

Lying is easier when excuses are accepted. 

Forgiving yourself is the first step toward being able to tell the truth. 

Cowardice is the easiest form of immorality and corruption. 

Courage is the most important virtue and highest form of ethics. 

If you need someone, and they show up. 

Then they can be trusted. 

The opposite is also true. 

Simple test that is proven daily. 

Often when sick, we aren’t truly sick. 

Often we are just tired and our body is telling us in the fastest way it can. 

That is when true rest is needed, mental, emotional, and physical.
