People are probably not happy with their life if they’re busy discussing yours.

Judge not, before you judge yourself. Judge not, if you’re not ready for judgement.

God is my first love.

It’s a process. It’s a process. It’s a process. Change takes time.

Failures are a part of life. If you don’t fail, you don’t learn. If you don’t learn, you’ll never change.

Yesterday, I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today, I am wise, so I am changing myself.

Don’t lower your standards for anyone or anything. Self respect is everything.

If you dont have any shadows, you’re not standing in the light.

Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers, and thinkers, but most of all, surround yourself with those who see greatness within you, even when you don’t see it in yourself.

Believe in your flyness, conquer your shyness.

Make sure the important people in your life know how important they are before it’s too late.

You become like the five people you spend the most time with. Choose carefully.

Yes, that means that if you persistently hang around a bunch of rude, angry people, you will eventually end up rude and angry. Yes, this also means that if you hang around overweight, unfit people, eventually, you will become overweight and unfit, too.One of the fastest ways to get to where you want to go – to become who you want to become, is to surround yourself with people who are already where you want to be. If you surround yourself with what some would term ‘shallow’ and/or egocentric women who are bitchy; you’ll end up becoming like that, too.

No one is perfect.

People say, ‘Find good people and let go of the bad ones.’ But it should be, ‘Find the good in people and let go of the bad.’ No one is perfect.

Remember when someone told you that quote "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" ? Well then Live it! Embrace that theory and accept nothing less. Once you have resolved to do the work and cut them loose, your life will feel like a tornado for a bit. You will have a few more fights and some explaining to do. These people enjoy walking all over you, so when you disappear from the radar they will want to know why. You can simple tell them that they make you feel bad about yourself and you don't want to feel that way anymore. That you are moving your life and person to a positive path and would rather focus on that, than the hurt and drama that they bring to you. They will not be happy. They will not understand. They will try to convince you otherwise. Stand up for yourself and tell them no. This is the decision you have made and will accept nothing less than pleasant people, quality experiences, and fulfilling relationships. Chances are they will walk away, angry, but still walking away. Then there you are, ready to move to the next happy relationship, all the while knowing what you want from it. ~voices.yahoo.com (Heather Prinz)
