“If you wish to be happy,Eragon, Think not of what is to come nor of that which you have no control over but rather of the now and that which you are able to change”
“I don't think happiness is something that comes or doesn't; I think it's something you have a control over”
“Great change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over & release control over what you don't.”
“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.”
“Learn from the past, set vivid, detailed goals for the future, and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now.”
“This may be a thing you neither want nor need," she said. "But I'd rather you have it, wishing didn't, than not have it and wish you did.”
