Yourself
(page 5)
I feel like life is really short, and it's important to enjoy yourself and embrace whatever comes your way, whether it's a challenging day or a great day, just welcome it with open arms. No matter who you are, you can't escape challenges; they are part of life.
Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world.
Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.
If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.
Most importantly, you have to stay true to yourself as well as those fans who made you who you are as an athlete.
Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs, honor your creator, not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high, but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself, right now, right down here on Earth.
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
A healthy friendship is one where you share your true feelings without fearing the end of the relationship. It's also one where you sometimes have to let things that bug you slide. The tough moments will make you wiser about yourself and each other. They will also make you stronger and closer as friends.
If you want to be original just try being yourself, because God has never made two people exactly alike.
Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.

Healing yourself is connected with healing others.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
Fear is the most debilitating emotion in the world, and it can keep you from ever truly knowing yourself and others — its adverse effects can no longer be overlooked or underestimated. Fear breeds hatred, and hatred has the power to destroy everything in its path.
I always tell my clients to be tough, to be strong. Never weaken yourself. I believe God favors only strong persons.
A friend is a gift you give yourself.
Before you speak ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid.
You can look in the mirror and find a million things wrong with yourself. Or you can look in the mirror and think, 'I feel good, I have my health, and I'm so blessed'. That's the way I choose to look at it.
Whatever you do in life, surround yourself with smart people who'll argue with you.
Always keep your mind as bright and clear as the vast sky, the great ocean, and the highest peak, empty of all thoughts. Always keep your body filled with light and heat. Fill yourself with the power of wisdom and enlightenment.
