Self-help

"No success was won without self- determination and self-discipline."

"A person must first learn how to walk on their own before you can guide them in the right direction."

"I wrote this book to show you that a cure is entirely possible because I've seen it happen over and over again."

"Without awareness, every one of us is at risk of living trapped, an unfulfilled trace of our Self, by our own sense of who we are"

"My simple explanation of why we human beings, the most advanced species on earth, cannot find happiness, is this: as we evolve up the ladder of being, we find three things: the first, that the tension between the range of opposites in our lives and society widens dramatically and often painfully as we evolve; the second, that the better informed and more intelligent we are, the more humble we have to become about our ability to live meaningful lives and to change anything, even ourselves; and consequently, thirdly, that the cost of gaining the simplicity the other side of complexity can rise very steeply if we do not align ourselves and our lives well."

"Somehow, we have gotten off track from the basics of health and spirituality, and we get in our own way."

"You only have one day at a time to live, so live it and choose well!"

"Periodic Paralysis is not our friend"

"It’s free to feed your mind and your mind feeds your body"

"Carbohydrate density is simple to calculate -- just divide the quantity of carbohydrate in food by the weight of the food. The more carbs packed into a given gram of food, the higher its carbohydrate density."

"I have never counted on someone to take care of my emotions for me."

"You are not your emotions and they are not who you are, only how you feel at the moment."

"Practical management of your time includes taking responsibility of your choices."

"In the long-run, regrets consist less of bad choices and more of choices not made at all. Little do we realize, those were choices too."

"Like the ripples from a stone tossed into the pond from the water’s edge, the effects of our choices extend infinitely outward. Even the smallest of acts reverberates in the ears of unwritten histories."

"Make up your mind!"

"The territorialism and desire to possess things comes directly from the ego, which strives to own and control things. Your spirit already knows you own nothing. It is a matter of realizing that your happiness does not depend on your ownership of things. They help you in your journey but they are not the journey itself."

"You can do extraordinary deeds."

"May you wait for God’s own fulfilment of His promises."

"Interpreters package and then sell, rent, or impose upon us artificially flavored illusions of truth, salvation, enlightenment, and happiness that are built upon their goals. That twisted information and those errant goals and are often very different from those of the original teachers that these interpreters are borrowing moral authority from. Following our own inner guidance would yield better results than following the village idiot. Neither Buddha nor Jesus was waiting for a Buddha or a Jesus to come solve their personal problems or those of humanity. The key to whatever we need is within us. The job of uncovering it is ours to do."
