Wayne Dyer

What is hope but a feeling of optimism, a thought that says things will improve, it won't always be bleak, there's a way to rise above the present circumstances. Hope is an internal awareness that you do not have to suffer forever, and that somehow, somewhere there is a remedy for despair that you will come upon if you can only maintain this expectancy in your heart.

Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.

Live forgiveness every day rather than just talking about it on Sunday.

Say to Yourself when Someone Else is Criticizing U, 'What U Think of Me is None of My Business'

Conflict is a violation of harmony. If you participate in it, you're part of the problem, not the solution.

My own eight children all march to the beat of their inner music, and in some cases, it is definitely far away from what I hear. I've had to honor their instincts and their choices, and merely guided them out of harm's way until they could be their own guides.

You get what you think about, whether you want it or not. Commit to thinking about what you want, rather than how impossible or difficult that dream may seem.

As I look back at the entire tapestry of my life, I can see from the perspective of the present moment that every aspect of my life was necessary and perfect. Each step eventually led to a higher place, even though these steps often felt like obstacles or painful experiences.

Give yourself more opportunities for privacy, when you are not bombarded with duties and obligations. Privacy is not a rejection of those you love; it is your deserved respite for recharging your batteries.

Let go of your ego's need to be right. When you're in the middle of an argument, ask yourself: Do I want to be right or be happy? When you choose the joyous, loving, spiritual mode, your connection to intention is strengthened.

If it excites you, if it makes you feel good, it's God speaking to you.

As I unclutter my life, I free myself to answer the callings of my soul.

Every thought that you have impacts you. Shift from a thought that weakens to one that strengthens you.

If you knew who walked beside you at all times, on the path that you have chosen, you could never experience fear or doubt again.

Be at Peace with Everyone - No one is capable of making you upset without your consent, so if you begin practicing the intention to be authentic and peaceful with everyone, you connect to peace itself- and gain the power to change the energy of your relationships with family and friends.

The truth is that there is no actual stress or anxiety in the world; it's your thoughts that create these false beliefs. You can't package stress, touch it, or see it. There are only people engaged in stressful thinking.

It's never crowded along the extra mile.

Our lives are a sum total of the choices we have made.

Heaven is a state of mind, not a location, since Spirit is everywhere and in everything.

Did you ever notice how difficult it is to argue with someone who is not obsessed with being right?

You are a Divine creation, a Being of Light who showed up here as a human being at the exact moment you were supposed to. You are the Beloved, a miracle, a part of the eternal perfection.
