Meditation has changed my life
To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty.
We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.
One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.
If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.
One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore.
It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.
Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.
Change your thoughts and you change your world.
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
I speak about family and adoption because it 100% changed my life and who I am. It definitely played a very large role into just learning how to be grateful for what you have and being fulfilled in a way that a lot of adopted kids don't feel.
You changed my life. You changed my ways. I don't even recognize myself these days. It must be a reflection of you, only you.
The free access to information is not a privilege, but a necessity for any free society. One of my favorite things to do as a young man was wander through the stacks of my hometown library. I'd just browse until I found something interesting. Libraries have definitely changed my life.
I think the only reason I've had the career life that I've had is that someone told me some secrets early on about living. You can do the very best you can when you're very, very relaxed, no matter what it is or what your job is, the more relaxed you are the better you are. That's sort of why I got into acting. I realized the more fun I had, the better I did it. And I thought, that's a job I could be proud of. It's changed my life learning that, and it's made me better at what I do.
Hearing the blues changed my life.
My first book was the book that changed my life.
I used to dream of medals and championships, but now I dream solely of a blue-eyed fighter who one day changed my life, when he put his lips on mine. . .
The meaning I picked, the one that changed my life: Overcome fear, behold wonder.
So in the end, was it worth it? Jesus Christ. How irreparably changed my life has become. It's always the last day of summer and I've been left out in the cold with no door to get back in. I'll grant you I've had more than my share of poignant moments. Life passes most people by while they're making grand plans for it. Throughout my lifetime, I've left pieces of my heart here and there. And now, there's almost not enough to stay alive. But I force a smile, knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent. There are no more white horses or pretty ladies at my door.
Because too many times in life there's just one person that I met, just one thing that I heard, one movie that I saw, one song that was sung, that changed my life. So I'm always trying to stay awake to be in the moment, and capture the moments when they come, because they come and go all the time.
