“In many ways, life is about managing your delusions; keeping the ones that nourish and eliminating the ones that poison.”

“One of the most healing things you can do is recognize where in your life you are your own poison.”

“Many people experience the travesty of regret in their end days; the realization that nothing held them back, that nothing was in their way, that there is no one to blame, only themselves. Don't just sit by waiting for your life to happen, make it happen! Don’t just hope your dreams will come alive, breathe life into them! Don't let your fear help you birth a well-nourished regret, take action today! At the end of the day, at the end of the year, at the end of your life, live in such a manner that you can hold your head up high, smile, and be proud of a life well lived.”

“Beware: It is a quick transition from a nourishing sense of gratitude to a poisonous sense of entitlement.”

“It takes bravery to recognize where in your life you are your own poison... it takes courage to do something about it.”

“Ideas and philosophies have a shelf-life. They must be kept fresh and renewed or they will spoil. If left unattended, the same ideas and philosophies that once nourished you and helped you grow can poison you and make you sick. Become aware of new ideas that can refresh your way of life and be open to the fact that your old ideas and philosophies can work for you for some time, but when the shelf-life has passed, those ideas and philosophies could also harm you.”

“Challenges in life can either enrich you or poison you. You are the one who decides.”
