  • I don’t do a post now unless I’m worried about what people will think about me

  • This is a practice. You don’t go to the gym once and consider yourself done

  • This day, I vow to myself to love myself, to treat myself as someone I love truly and deeply—in my thoughts, my actions, the choices I make, the experiences I have, each moment I am conscious, I make the decision I LOVE MYSELF

  • Your job is purely to love yourself. Truly and deeply. Feel it. Again and again. Make it your single-minded focus. The mind and body will respond automatically

  • As you love yourself, live loves you back

  • Each time the mind shifts to darkness—fear, worry, pain, you name it—when you notice, clean the window. Light will flow in

  • If I loved myself truly and deeply, would I let myself experience this?

  • The nature of mind is thought

  • To all that happens, I say yes

  • All freedom starts from within

  • Who we are spreads out in ways bigger than us. So when we make ourselves better, those around us are better for it

  • Is the noise in my head real?

  • Asking and answering questions make us proactive in our lives, rather than reactive

  • If I loved myself truly and deeply, what would I do?

  • Share your truth

  • Questions will steer you away from what doesn’t serve you, both in your mind and in your life

  • If it scares you, there is magic on the other side

  • Life rewards you more when you pay attention to its gifts
