Philosopher and writer Alain de Botton wrote,
''I think where people tend to end up results
from a combination of encouragement, accident,
and lucky break, etc. etc.'
Encouragement brings out the best in people.
But to be successful, to grow, encouragement
alone is not enough. You need more than that.
You need you to succeed. You need a healthy inner life
to succeed.
And you have got to be willing to face your music.
To get what you want, according to Dr. Henry Cloud,
'...you have to go through a moment of pain to get
to the place you want to be.' If you are willing to do it,
to face your pain, to face your journey, you can do it.
But you are going to be very patient with yourself.
Because great things take time.
Choose your actions wisely.
''We are free to choose our actions, but, unfortunately,
we are not free to choose the consequences.''
'Nothing gets better on its own.'
'Nothing gets better on its own. Left alone,
these patterns will destroy life.''
You are still you.
''Wherever you go, there you are.
Whatever you own, you are still the same person.
Whoever you are with, you are still you.
Wherever you work, you are still the same person.''
Your happiness depends on your inner life.
''People who are happy know that their
happiness doesn't depend on external factors,
but internal ones.''
You are who you are.
'We are who we are;
outside circumstances do not
change who we are on the inside.''
'Life works 'inside out.'''
'Our life is never on the outside.
It is always on the inside.
The invisible life always produces the visible life.
Life works 'inside out.'''
'The way to get better.'
'The way to get better is to be honest
about who we are and allow God to take our weaknesses
and make them better.''
'How to succeed.'
'The ones who succeeded were willing to go
through the painful moment required to
get what they desired.''
