The need to connect with one another intimately is what makes and keeps us human. The challenge throughout life is to find the courage to reach out to potential partners when our primary relationship ends and to recharge our tried-and-true unions when their sizzle starts to fizzle.

Nothing brings families together faster than forgiveness. That should make it Step No. 1, but most of us find forgiving hard. We associate it with weakness and losing when, actually, the reverse is true. When you forgive, you gain strength and come out a winner. You break free of control by the other person's actions.

Love, real love, is not simply a state of bliss. It is an ever-changing state, the result of time and emotional development, of trust and commitment.
Joyce Brothers
Image
I don't believe in luck. We make our own good fortune.
Joyce Brothers
Image
I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.
Joyce Brothers
Image
Feeling gratitude isn't born in us-it's something we are taught, and in turn, we teach our children.
Joyce Brothers
Image
I've enjoyed the pleasures of working since I was 12 and earned all my own spending money since I was 14.

Image
The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy, inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
Joyce Brothers
Image
Men are not conditioned to be less powerful than a woman. It will be the wise woman who realizes this and is sensitive to that issue.
Joyce Brothers
Image
Don't always try to be popular. It isn't possible for everyone to like you. It's far more important for you to like yourself. And when you respect yourself, strangely, you get more respect than when you court it from others.

I don't give advice. I can't tell anybody what to do. Instead I say this is what we know about this problem at this time. And here are the consequences of these actions.
