“Jealousy is a waste of energy...focus on what I have, not what I don't.”
“Anger requires energy, something I don't dare waste on what cannot be altered.”
“I don't panic unless I have to. Wastes energy.”
“Exile (being where we don't want to be with people we don't want to be with) forces a decision: Will I focus my attention on what is wrong with the world and feel sorry for myself? Or will I focus my energies on how I can live at my best in this place I find myself?..."I will do my best with what is here.”
“Stop focusing on what you don’t want; it’s a tremendous waste of time and energy. Instead, start focusing on what you do want. This is the only way to create a plan of action which will enable you to experience the life you envision.”
“But if I can't change something, I don't waste energy on it.”
