"So many people will tell you ”no”, and you need to find something you believe in so hard that you just smile and tell them ”watch me”. Learn to take rejection as motivation to prove people wrong. Be unstoppable. Refuse to give up, no matter what. It’s the best skill you can ever learn."

"It is not as much about who you used to be, as it is about who you choose to be."

"The whole life of the individual is nothing but the process of giving birth to himself; indeed, we should be fully born when we die - although it is the tragic fate of most individuals to die before they are born."

"The more we see ourselves as a vibrant, successful, inspiring person who boldly declares and manifests her vision, the more we become just that."

"All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions"

"If you want to lead an extraordinary life, find out what the ordinary do–and don't do it."
