Let us awaken and feel alive with joy and appreciation for the gift of this life.

Brendon Burchard

Money doesn't mean anything to me. I've made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account. I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is much more important.

With the past, I have nothing to do; nor with the future. I live now.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

You better live your best and act your best and think your best today; for today is the sure preparation for tomorrow and all the other tomorrows that follow.

Harriet Martineau
