“To rise above the conflicting desires of others, there must be no conflict about your own.”

“Your own dreams stand alone, longing to be fulfilled, and you wonder if it will ever happen. You must have faith. Just as the bus was a little late, so too can fulfilment of your desires come a bit late.”

“Stop comparing yourself with others. If they are good at something, you too are good at something else. Self-confidence is not measured by your own capabilities versus that of others, but by your own needs.”

“It so happens that at times your desires tend to disagree with the reality and this is due to the fact that you have not let the two elements complement each other.”

“To will is to put your emotion into your desire. Simply wanting is not desire, it is merely an undirected thought with no purpose but to pass the time.”

“If everyone realized this truth about their own inherent power to create and to attract whatever they desired, not everyone would want to be the president of a country, not everyone would want to live on that mansion on the hill, and not everyone would want the same things you would.”

“Before you can successfully make friends with others, first you have to become your own friend.”
