“For the time being, you are your passion. You are going to invest in yourself. You are going to make it a point to work harder at whatever it is you're doing. You're going to celebrate your victories, no matter how small. If you do something well, you're going to compliment yourself for it. You're going to set goals. You're going to verbalize -and share- your plans. You're going to hold yourself accountable to those goals and plans. You're going to separate yourself from negative people who suck energy from you. You're going to surround yourself with people who are positive and have your best interest in mind. You're going to be healthier.”

“I believe there are laws at work in human interaction. These are laws that dictate success or failure, laws that portend a life of happiness or a life of regret. Put simply, they are Laws of Power.”
