What I Learned Today

'Each day teaches something new - if you're willing to learn. And this year has taught me it all basically comes down to the same thing: You create Heaven and Hell. Hell hides in making others responsible for your story. Heaven lies in full honest ownership of your life. Nobody else can make you happy, beautiful, desirable or valuable. You are all your problems and solutions. You have total power. And you can choose to use it wisely.'

'Don't ask to be lucky. Make everyone you meet feel lucky... That's success.'
