The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.
Nelson Henderson

If you do not run your subconscious mind yourself, someone else will run it for you.
Florence Scovel Shinn

At the end of the day it's not about what you have or even what you've accomplished...it's about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It's about what you've given back.
Denzel Washington
When you are in alignment with who-you-really-are, you cannot help but uplift those with whom you come into contact. Your value to those around you hinges upon only one thing: your personal alignment with Source. And the only thing you have to give to another is an example of that alignment – which they may observe, then desire, and then work to achieve – but you cannot give it to them. Everyone is responsible for the thoughts they think and the things that they choose as their objects of attention.
Abraham-Hicks, from Money and the Law of Attraction, August 31, 2008
It’s not “running away”; it’s realigning to my true path.
Annie Zalezsak, June 5, 2016
It’s exhausting to “make your life happen.” It’s “responsible” to let go of the wheel. A greater love and intelligence wants to move through you. Love yourself more. Love will heal, steer, and empower you.
Tama J Kieves
You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should’ve behaved better.
Anne Lamott, from Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life
Accept – then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it… This will miraculously transform your whole life.
Eckhart Tolle

All things are right in the moment of doing, in the eye of the doer.
Annie Zalezsak, 11 May 2010
A great burden was lifted from my shoulders the day I realized that no one owes me anything.
Harry Browne, financial consultant and libertarian activist
Those who, relying upon themselves only, not looking for assistance to anyone besides themselves, it is they who will reach the top-most height.
Buddha
Making the decision to have a child – it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.
Elizabeth Stone
As for myself, I always willingly acknowledge my own self as the principal cause of every good and of every evil which may befall me; therefore I have always found myself capable of being my own pupil, and ready to love my teacher.
Giacomo Casanova
It is not enough to have great qualities, we should also have the management of them.
Francois de La Rochefoucald
Man’s biggest mistake is to believe that he's working for someone else.
Nashua Cavalier
A man may fall many times but he won't be a failure until he says someone pushed him.
Elmer G Letterman
If you’re not giving the world the best you have, what world are you saving it for?
Kent Keith
Those who do not create the future they want must endure the future they get.
Draper L Kaufman Jr
You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.
Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924) 28th US President
You can understand and relate to most people better if you look at them – no matter how old or impressive they may be – as if they are children. For most of us never really grow up or mature all that much – we simply grow taller. O, to be sure, we laugh less and play less and wear uncomfortable disguises like adults, but beneath the costume is the child we always are, whose needs are simple, whose daily life is still best described by fairy tales.
