Attitude makes all the difference. Two people can be affected by the same circumstance and respond in completely different ways; it just depends on their perspective. No matter what happens or doesn’t happen, life is what you choose to make it.
Some sadness is necessary. You cannot completely shield yourself from sadness without also shielding yourself from happiness. Sadness is part of the journey. Life is a series of highs and lows.
You can’t fight fire with fire. Don’t spew hostile words at those who spew them at you. Tone it down and replace the stink of confrontation with the fragrance of resolution. The louder the opposition wants to yell, the calmer and more confidently you need to speak.
Fear always exists. Every new experience triggers at least some fear; and that’s okay. Fear can help you to assess risk and prepare for all kinds of important, challenging situations.
Small steps get you to big places. The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing simply because you can only do a little. The path to every goal requires a hundred small steps — one after the other.
You can only change yourself. Don’t wait for someone who hurt you to make it up to you. Inner peace is found by changing your thinking, not the people who hurt you.
