We can’t control the world, but we can control our reactions to it.

The point to remember is that when you blame any outside force for any of your experience of life, you are literally giving away all your power and thus creating pain, paralysis and depression.

You can actually shift your thinking in such a way as to make a wrong decision or mistake an impossibility.

When we are concerned with something bigger than ourselves, our fears are greatly diminished.

The less you need someone’s approval, the more you are able to love them.

Now I know that when I am angry at my husband, I simply have to ask myself, “What am I not doing in my life that I could be doing that I am blaming him for not doing for me?”

See if you can go a week without criticizing anyone or complaining about anything.

Awareness is half the battle.

Taking responsibility means being aware of where and when you are NOT taking responsibility so that you can eventually change.

So, instead of wanting to throttle your loved ones when they give you a hard time, it is better to look at them as mirrors of what you still need to work on in terms of our personal growth.

Feel the fear and do it anyway.
