I think in a way, you're doomed, once you can envision something. You're sort of doomed to make it happen. I've found that the moment I can envision leaving a relationship, that's usually the moment that the relationship starts to fall apart.

You have to make it happen.

Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.

If you want something, you can't wait for someone to make it happen for you.

I think the quickest way to get me to do something is really, 'You can't do that.' And I'm like, 'OK, I will make that happen.'

Awareness makes us emotionally brilliant!

If you can honestly say that you are fully aware of what you’re up against in life, you are brilliant. Being aware means you are informed―alert, knowledgeable, sophisticated―and you have the tools to visualize, strategize, focus, and win.

The more aware you are of life and its difficulties, of how people act and their effect on you, of your own quirks and how you handle both good and bad situations, the better off you are. But how many of us are that aware?
