Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

"Make the choice to embrace this day. Do not let your TODAY be stolen by the ghost of yesterday or the "To-Do"list of tomorrow! It’s inspiring to see all the wonderfully amazing things that can happen in a day in which you participate."

"Don’t tell me about your god with your words. Show me about your god with your actions."

"When you truly embrace your human impermanence you connect with the power you have, and influence you have, over the time you have."

"Free yourself from the complexities and drama of your life. Simplify. Look within. Within ourselves we all have the gifts and talents we need to fulfill the purpose we've been blessed with."

"At any given moment the choice to be happy is present- we just have to choose to be happy."

"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."

"How would your life be different if…You approached all relationships with authenticity and honesty? Let today be the day…You dedicate yourself to building relationships on the solid foundation of truth and authenticity."

"Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't."

"Judging is preventing us from understanding a new truth. Free yourself from the rules of old judgments and create the space for new understanding."

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

"Although time seems to fly, it never travels faster than one day at a time. Each day is a new opportunity to live your life to the fullest. In each waking day, you will find scores of blessings and opportunities for positive change. Do not let your TODAY be stolen by the unchangeable past or the indefinite future! Today is a new day!"

"What do you think will be more effective when it comes to succeeding, believing you can or KNOWING you will? Let today be the last day you took timid steps of belief and start taking confident steps of purpose-driven knowing!"

"In a strong relationship, you should love your companion more than you need them."

"Although time seems to fly, it never travels faster than one day at a time. Each day is a new opportunity to live your life to the fullest. In each waking day, you will find scores of blessings and opportunities for positive change. Do not let your TODAY be stolen by the unchangeable past or the indefinite future! Today is a new day!"

"Love has no limitations. It cannot be measured. It has no boundaries. Although many have tried, love is indefinable."

"Don't confuse poor decision-making with destiny. Own your mistakes. It’s ok; we all make them. Learn from them so they can empower you!"

"Live authentically. Why would you continue to compromise something that's beautiful to create something that is fake?"

"Your dream is a reality that is waiting for you to materialize. Today is a new day! Don’t let your history interfere with your destiny! Learn from your past so that it can empower your present and propel you to greatness"

"Change is in the air. This change reminds us that we are made and beautifully sculpted by the same power that orchestrates the change of season. Let this be the season you embrace and align yourself with this change."

"People who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will often find ways to discourage yours. When you change for the better, the people around you will be inspired to change also....but only after doing their best to make you stop. Live your truth and don't EVER stop."
