“If you always Think What You Always Thought, you’ll always get what you always got”


ü You don’t lose anything by giving up your defects.

ü The perfect friend does not exist anywhere but within you, yourself.

ü When the time comes to commit a big mistake there is a moment of reflection, a fraction of a second, in which you can turn around and walk away from it...

ü Challenges do not forge you character; they put it in the spotlight.

ü Accept the fact that there are others in your life that have the right to expect certain things from you...

ü Act your title...

ü There comes a time when we have to accept all the responsibility, the sum total of our lives.

ü Find your kids and save them.

ü Enjoy your freedom, the only thing you have that we desire...
