I can think of no more worthwhile aim than pursuing mastery in this craft while transcending one's own limitations.

Most are unaware of their tremendous worth and boundless potential, despite possessing both.

Persistence of action comes from persistence of vision.

People have worried about things for centuries, but it has never once had a positive effect on the outcome of a situation.

Within the earth__ womb each metal grows slowly developing and transforming into its perfection, its highest manifestation _ gold. Nature and God are striving towards perfection, everything moves towards One. Just as human strive to become fully conscious, so all the metals strive to reach their purest state _ gold.

Personal growth is not like the development of a skill. It does not take place in observable increments that can be measured and charted. Indeed, as we have seen, when we're growing in sensitivity, generosity, and compassion, we're not aware of it, because we're not focusing on ourselves. The recovery of emotional freedom simply does not have the quality, for most of us, of a controllable sequence of transformations. It's more a career of discovering futher and further weaknesses and shedding them in turn.

Never allow yourself to be defined by some else's opinion of you....unless they hold a higher opinion of you than you have for yourself.

In whatever we do, we should be investing in ourselves and not our jobs. Everything I have ever pursued has been for the sole goal of who I was becoming in its achievement. I competed and fought because of the man I became. This is the only worthwhile victory. You cannot take the trophies with you.

Personal development is an ever-evolving process of making more and better distinctions about who you are and what you want.

Always keep an open mind and to listen to what those around you have to say about you. You might actually learn something that may help you become a better person!

It's so free to know that I do not have to compensate or make excuses for being treated poorly in relationships. I can simply move forward knowing I deserve better

Disparate from animals, human beings are constantly interpreting who we are. The mental rhythm of the human mind is a stream of thought that is constantly in motion. The development of conscious awareness is a lifetime process of interpreting the external world by employing the tools of observation, memory, and imagination; supplemented by rational thoughts, meditative reflections, intuition, and freelance conjure. Every day we can consciously work to alter our being or remain mentally stagnant.

All levels of ascension involve letting go of things that hold you back.

There is no condition so severe that you cannot reverse itby choosing different thoughts. However, choosing differentthoughts requires focus and practise. If you continue to focusas you have been, to think as you have been, and to believeas you have been, then nothing in your experience will change"~ from 'Ask And It Is Given' ~
