Mr. Right is coming, but he's in Africa and he's walking.
The greatest lesson of life is that you are responsible for your life.
I feel that luck is preparation meeting opportunity.
You did the best you could, the best you knew how at the time." It was something like that. From Oprah on an Oprah show. Then I believe my quote above was from Maya Angelou on the Oprah show, not Oprah herself. I had heard it before but it was on Oprah's show again 1-7-09 and she said Maya had said it.
A mentor is someone who allows you to see the hope inside yourself.
If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you give.
Opportunity may knock only once but temptation leans on the door bell
Listen. Pay attention. Treasure every moment.
All pain is the same.
Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don't fight them. Just find a new way to stand.
You look at yourself and you accept yourself for who you are, and once you accept yourself for who you are you become a better person.
In the mist of Difficulty lies Opportunity.
Self-esteem comes from being able to define the world in your own terms and refusing to abide by the judgments of others.
You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.
Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.
I trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we are not wise enough to see it.
I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.
Turn your wounds into wisdom.
Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the mext moment
