Hocus Picus

In the hero stories, the call to go on a journey takes the form of a loss, a depression, an error, a wound, an unexplainable longing, or a sense of a mission. When any of these happens to us, we are being summoned to make a transition.

Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.

Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over again, and you will grow stronger until you have accomplished a purpose – not the one you began with perhaps, but one you’ll be glad to remember.

Believe something and the Universe is on its way to being changed. Because you've changed, by believing. Once you've changed, other things start to follow.

The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.

Focus on an ocean of positives, not a puddle of negatives.

If you can’t believe in miracles, then believe in yourself. When you want something bad enough, let that drive push you to make it happen. Sometimes you’ll run into brick walls that are put there to test you. Find a way around them and stay focused on your dream. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

Happiness is a habit —cultivate it.

We are not here on earth to change our destiny, but to fulfill it.

In order to heal themselves, people must recognize, first, that they have an inner guidance deep within and, second, that they can trust it.

Dreams are the seeds of change. Nothing ever grows without a seed, and nothing ever changes without a dream.

Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present.

When you make a choice, you change the future.

The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.

Imagine that there is an ocean before you. Boundless expanse of water extending in all directions. Boundless, infinite. This ocean is as infinite as your knowledge of the World that your soul possesses.

Inner guidance is heard like soft music in the night by those who have learned to listen.

To create reality, focus beyond the outcome, as if it has already happened.
