Wealth is enjoying what we already have, not getting more of what we think will make us happy.

Transformation

The past cannot be changed. But you can change.

The mistakes, disappointments, and poor choices have occurred, and cannot be undone. Yet they can teach you, motivate you, make you more determined and purposeful.

Today you have the opportunity to transform negative experience into positive power. Today you can take whatever has happened and make it into whatever you want.

The future does not equal the past, and you stand right here in the present, able to create that future. No matter how far you’ve strayed from the path, you can turn right now in the direction of your choice.

Today, positive, purposeful action will push you past the regrets, beyond the frustrations, away from previous mistakes. Look forward, with your goal firmly in mind, and go for it.

All the ups and downs of the past have brought you here. Now, make of it the very best you can imagine.

— Ralph Marston
