Live life as if everything is rigged in your favor.  Rumi

Such a simple concept, yet so true: that which we manifest is before us; we are the creators of our own destiny.  Be it through intention or ignorance, our successes and our failures have been brought on by none other than ourselves.  Garth Stein, The Art of Racing in the Rain

[T]he basic stuff of the universe, at its core, is a kind of pure energy that is malleable to human intention and expectation in a way that defies our old mechanistic model of the universe – as though our expectation itself causes our energy to flow out into the world and affect other energy systems.   James Redfield, The Celestine Prophecy

It takes a deep commitment to change and an even deeper commitment to grow.  Ralph Ellison

When you choose to stay focused on what you desire, instead of what you don’t have, you realign your energy and cause external circumstances to shift.  Connecting with and choosing to remain in your state of inner peace, regardless of what is happening, is a dynamic affirmation that the external world is shaped by the internal one.  Lynne Herod- DeVerges, Center of Light Miracles
