“Keep your focus on the things you can actually control. Choosing to center on anything else will either stop you in your tracks or significantly slow you down.”

“You can’t control what others think. The only thing you can control is yourself. Some people will look down on you for your choices in life, no matter what they are. You can’t do anything about that. The only thing you can do is decide how to live your own life. And to hell with everybody else”

“Control the things you can control, maggot. Let everything else take a flying fuck at you and if you must go down, go down with your guns blazing.”

“From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life.”

“Money, like emotions, is something you must control to keep your life on the right track.”

“Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.”
