Overcoming fear
"The way you become brave, is one terrifying step at a time."
— Bryant McGill
When everything seems crazy
"Just because your world is falling apart doesn't mean you have to fall apart. When everything seems crazy, you be calm. Don't let the outer chaos you are facing get inside of you."

Listen to your inner-voice
"Some people have abusive, negative, controlling tendencies in their blood; they are wired for havoc, bickering and deception. They know of no other way to interface with others except through their created chaos. Chaos is their home-court advantage where they play their mind-games so they can have power over you; it's a rigged game you can never win. Listen to your inner-voice. Get out while you can!"
— Bryant McGill
We are all damaged
"We are all damaged. We have all been hurt. We have all had to learn painful lessons. We are all recovering from some mistake, loss, betrayal, abuse, injustice or misfortune. All of life is a process of recovery that never ends. We each must find ways to accept and move through the pain and to pick ourselves back up. For each pang of grief, depression, doubt or despair there is an inverse toward renewal coming to you in time. Each tragedy is an announcement that some good will indeed come in...
New beginnings
"Every ending is creating the space and opening for an amazing new beginning."
— Bryant McGill
Let it fall apart
"Don't hold together what must fall apart. The familiar life crumbles so the new life can begin."
— Bryant McGill
Breathe and remember
"Stop your worrying, panicking and stressing. Breathe. Remember, you made it this far through difficulties that seemed impossible. Remember how many times you were saved at the very last minute — this time is no different."
— Bryant McGill
A quickening in your instincts
"When the storm of life comes howling and raging outside your window; when you look that tempest in the eye, there will be a quickening in your instincts. In that moment, you will burn with aliveness. Your total intelligence knows exactly what to do, because you were made to weather the storms of life."
— Bryant McGill
No one wants to suffer
"No one wants to suffer. No one wants to be lonely. No one wants to live in fear. No one wants to lose everything. No one wants their heart ripped to shreds. No one wants to be sick. And, no one wants to die. But these things happen in life. So the least we can do is be there for others, as we would like others to be there for us."
