The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream.
The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs.
Dreams are the seedlings of realities.
~ James Allen

Life is one big road with lots of signs.
So when you riding through the ruts, don’t complicate your mind.
Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy.
Don’t bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality.
Wake Up and Live!
~ Bob Marley
Believe that with your feelings and your work you are taking part in the greatest;
the more strongly you cultivate this belief,
the more will reality and the world go forth from it.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes.
Don’t resist them – that only creates sorrow.
Let reality be reality.
Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
Lao Tzu

We but mirror the world.
All the tendencies present in the outer world
are to be found in the world of our body.
If we could change ourselves, the tendencies
in the world would also change.
As a man changes his own nature,
so does the attitude
of the world change towards him.
This is the divine mystery supreme.
A wonderful thing it is and the source of
our happiness.
We need not wait to see what others do.
~M.K. Gandhi
Appreciative Self-Inquiry:
What change do I wish to see in my own world?
Mind is the master power that molds and makes,
And we are Mind, and evermore we take
The tool of thought, and shaping what we will,
Bring forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills.
We think in secret, and it comes to pass –
Our world is but our looking glass.
~ James Allen
Appreciative Self-Inquiry:
As I look at every aspect of my life, what personal empowering beliefs are reflected back to me [the areas of my life that I am feeling satisfied and fulfilled] and what personal limiting beliefs am I ready to transform [the areas in my life that I am unhappy and dissatisfied with]?
