Every moment that you live inside your head thinking about the past or the future is a moment that you've missed. And while it feels that the moments in our lives are abundant, they slip away so quickly. Live every moment. Live in the here and now, not inside your head.

Like a video game, life will surprise you with its twists and turns. You can frown upon its unpredictability or, like a true gamer, you can acknowledge that this is what makes the game FUN. Enjoy the game. I hope you have the TIME OF YOUR LIFE.

When you force your brain to look for what is good about life, it easily finds it, because it is always there. Only, your brain wasn't looking for it.

Acceptance is not a sign of weakness, it is not a form of surrender. It is a sign of strength An acknowledgment of the new reality of one's life that prepares us to recognize what it is that we can no longer influence and, as a result, focus on what we can actually change.

Boundaries reduce our emotional stress, because they help us avoid resentments towards others from having said 'yes' to something we didn't actually want to do.

It's the epitome of courage - to find it within ourselves. To be who we actually want to be. Despite who we are being told to be. We will never become who we are meant to be, if we're not willing to show who we truly are.

Our thoughts are a cocktail of the events that trigger them, mixed with our assumptions, emotions, previous experiences, traumas, a load of fiction that we see in movies, a pile of negativity that we see in the news and a splash of our biggest concerns, worries and fears.
