“Only People can change themselves. People can change the way they think, act, and their perspective on life. People have the power and choice to believe in themselves, their abilities, and the future they dream to build. People change themselves which changes the opinions of others, but at the end of the day the only opinion that matters is the one you believe of yourself.”

“Anything you want to do is possible. Believe in yourself, see yourself doing it, walk like your going to do it, talk like your going to do it, and dream the dream of doing it, and it will be so....... Everything starts with a dream and believing in your own abilities. What everyone else says about your dreams is none of your business. Believe in yourself and big things will happen!”

“From the Buddhist perspective, the only lasting way to bring about change is for people themselves to change.”

“The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create.”

“People can have their opinions about everything in the world, but people's opinions end where the tip of my nose begins. Your opinions of others can only go so far as to where their own shoreline is. The world is for your taking, but other people are not. One is only allowed to have an opinion of me, if that person is done educating him/herself on everything about me. Before people educate themselves on everything about you, they're not allowed to open their venomous mouthes and have an opinion about you.”

“People who want to change everything in the world but never think of changing themselves are clapping with one palm.”

“You find yourself through adversity.... The things that hurt us most today make us stronger tomorrow.”
