We are all faced with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.

Why do you?

Why do you cling to outdated assumptions? Let them go and free your mind to be filled with more valuable, effective thoughts and perceptions.

Why do you miss out on so much of life in an attempt to maintain a sense of comfort and security? The real security comes from being willing and able to gracefully handle all of life’s ups and downs as they come your way.

Why do you let your fears stop you from living the rich and full life you were created to experience? Step back, look at those fears, let them teach you and prepare you, and then move confidently forward.

Why do you allow the least little setback to keep you down for so long? Learn to see the opportunity in everything that happens.

Why do you put so many burdensome conditions on your own happiness? Discover that happiness is a powerful state of being that you can choose, no matter what.

Why do you sit so long and wonder what is to be done? Your most treasured dreams are ready, right now, to be lived.
