"A man only begins to be a..." - Quote by James Allen

“For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why? Why not? Why not me? Why not now?”

“Do not dwell upon the sins and mistakes of yesterday so exclusively as to have no energy and mind left for living rightly today, and do not think that the sins of yesterday can prevent you from living purely today.”

“A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being; and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.”

“Nourish the mind like you would your body. The mind cannot survive on junk food.”

“Heroism is a matter of integrity--beco ming more and more at each step ourselves.”

“I advance in life, I grow more simple, and I become more and more patriotic for humanity.”

“Trying to “fix” the people in your life that cause you pain is like massaging your shoes because your feet ache.”

“I exist, I am, I am here, I am becoming, I make my own life and no one else makes it for me. I must face my own shortcomings, mistakes, transgressions. No one can suffer my non-being as I do, but tomorrow is another day, and I must decide to leave my bed and live again. And if I fail, I don't have the comfort of blaming you or life or God.”

“Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you're off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they're doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel-and then, you'll love them all. Because the only reason you don't love them, is because you're using them as your excuse to not feel good.”
