Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you’re climbing it.”
“Be willing to transition at every stage of your life. If your heart is open and you have an open mind, the blessing will flow.”
“The
only way that we can live is if we grow. The only way that we can grow
is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn. The
only way we can learn is if we are exposed. And the only way that we can
become exposed is if we throw ourselves out into the open. Do it. Throw
yourself.”
Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”
“Change
is inevitable in life. You can either resist it and potentially get run
over by it, or you can choose to cooperate with it, adapt to it, and
learn how to benefit from it. When you embrace change you will begin to
see it as an opportunity for growth.”
“A
lot of people resist transition and therefore never allow themselves to
enjoy who they are. Embrace the change, no matter when it is; once you
do, you can learn about the new world you are in and take advantage of
it.”
