If

If your inner energy is misdirected, so will your whole life be.

~C. Astrid Weber

Good judgment

Good judgment comes from experience,
and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

~Will Rogers

Choice is an illusion

“Choice is an illusion. Do I do this – do I do that – all of this is confusion. I can only choose when I’m confused. When I know clearly, there is no choice.”

~unknown

God comes

God comes to visit me every once in a while. Actually, he comes more often than I'd like but it's God. What can I say? That I'm busy, that I'm in the shower? He knows.

~Robert 'Bob' Rebadow, OZ

He who is not

"He who is not impressed by sound advice, lacks faith."

-Abu Bakr, Saudi Arabian statesman

It is your birthright

"It is your birthright to discover your sacred contract.
It will guide you to find your divine destiny."

~ Caroline Myss

Do not assume

"Do not assume that divine guidance flows only when you are in need of help. Guidance continues to flow whether or not you have problems.
It transcends problems, heartbreaks, and traumas,
flowing through dreams and illuminations.
Whether guidance comes during times of tranquility or trauma, however,
it is up to you to have the courage to acknowledge it"
~ Caroline Myss

If a man

If a man devotes himself to the instructions of his own unconscious, it can bestow this gift of renewal, so that suddenly life, which has been stale and dull, turns into a rich unending inner adventure, full of creative possibilities.

~Marie-Louise von Franz

A wise man

A wise man will never impawn his future being and action, and decide beforehand what he shall do in a given extreme event. Nature and God will instruct him in that hour.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

We owe

We owe many valuable observations to people who are not very acute or profound, and who say the thing without effort which we want and have long been hunting in vain.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Just because

Just because we increase the speed of information doesn't mean we can increase the speed of decisions. Pondering, reflecting and ruminating are undervalued skills in our culture.

~Dale Dauten

The ancients did not doubt

The ancients did not doubt that men could choose and, through choice, exercise some control over the disposition of their lives. Tacitus, for example…claims that ‘the wisest of the ancients leave us the capacity of choosing our life'.

~Mortimer J. Adler

What we hear

What we hear from a source we accept as authoritative is given far more weight than the same statements if heard from what is to us at the time a less credible source. What we see, hear, or experience with intensity has added weight. And what we hear repetitively from authoritative sources has even more weight.

~Maxwell Malts

Remember

Remember, decisions don't have to be made perfectly. We don't have to be perfect. We don't even have to be nearly perfect! We can just be who we are. We can make mistakes in our choices. We're not so fragile we can't handle making a mistake. It's no big deal! It's part of living. We can learn from our mistakes, or we can simply make another decision.

~Melody Beattie

If you are

If you are going to worry, don't do it. If you do it, don't worry.

~Michael Nolan
