Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

"It doesn't matter what you did or where you were...it matters where you are and what you're doing. Get out there! Sing the song in your heart and NEVER let anyone shut you up!!"

"Your greatest self has been waiting your whole life; don't make it wait any longer."

"How would your life be different if…You stopped validating your victim mentality? Let today be the day…You shake off your self-defeating drama and embrace your innate ability to recover and achieve."

"You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it courageously."

"Stop giving your life away to other people."

"Sometimes life knocks you on your ass... get up, get up, get up!!! Happiness is not the absence of problems, it's the ability to deal with them."

"It is important that when we make a resolution, or establish a goal, that we take the ACTION necessary to accomplish that goal."

"Simplify your life. You don't grow spiritual, you shrink spiritual."

"Success is something you experience when you act accordingly. Success is not something you have, it's something you do."

"Free yourself from the complexities of your life! A life of simplicity and happiness awaits you."

"It doesn't matter what you did or where you were...it matters where you are and what you're doing. Get out there! Sing the song in your heart and NEVER let anyone shut you up!!"

"Are you going to allow the world around you to change while you remain stagnant? Make this the time you throw away old habits that have hindered your happiness and success and finally allow your greatest self to flourish."

"Today is the only day in which we have any power."

"The time has come to harness the blessed power within us and to use it to transcend from our current existence into a more empowered reality."

"Don’t be disheartened by the forces of evil. Nothing can happen that God hasn’t allowed. Even resistance is all part of grand orchestration. The devil always has you right were God wants you."

"Happiness is not the absence of problems; it's the ability to deal with them."

"No matter what your history has been, your destiny is what you create today. What are you going to create?"

"When you find yourself in need of spiritual nourishment, it is in the opportunities to serve others that you will find the abundance you seek."

"How would your life be different if…You stopped allowing other people to dilute or poison your day with their words or opinions? Let today be the day…You stand strong in the truth of your beauty and journey through your day without attachment to the validation of others"

"Never compromise your values."
