If you're not actively involved in getting what you want, you don't really want it.
Peter McWilliams
Image
You're asking the government to control individual morality. This is a government that can't buy a toilet seat for under $600.
Peter McWilliams
Image
When we put things off until some future-probably mythical-Laterland, we drag the past into the future. The burden of yesterday's incompletions is a heavy load to carry. Don't carry it.
Peter McWilliams
Image
Prison is a crash course in the darker side of life. Few survive it without becoming a different person: more cynical, jaded, fearful, angry. Its hard to trust again, hard to believe, easy to hate a system that destroyed your life behind the pompous pretense of saving you from yourself, for your own good.

The simple solution for disappointment depression Get up and get moving. Physically move. Do. Act. Get going.

I'm a confirmed negaholic. I don't just see a glass that's half full and call it half-empty I see a glass that's completely full and worry that someone's going to tip it over.
Peter McWilliams
Image
I must conquer my loneliness alone. I must be happy with myself or I have nothing to offer you. Two halves have little choice but to join and yes, they do make a whole. But two wholes when they coincide... that is beauty. That is love.
Peter McWilliams
Image
It's your life. Live it with people who are alive. It tends to be contagious.
Peter McWilliams
Image
There are many misconceptions about depression-mostly negative. Unfortunately, because depressed people think negatively about depression and its treatment, they don't get help, which allows the depression to worsen, which leads to more negative thinking, which produces a vicious cycle of suffering.

Life is not a struggle. It's a wiggle.
Peter McWilliams
Image
For many, negative thinking is a habit, which over time, becomes an addiction... A lot of people suffer from this disease because negative thinking is addictive to each of the Big Three - the mind, the body, and the emotions. If one doesn't get you, the others are waiting in the wings.

This is our true wealth: the riches we take with us, the joy we carry inside, the support we learn to give ourselves, and the self-loving that flows as a natural by-product of that support.
Peter McWilliams
Image
When you start noticing even a small portion of all there is to be grateful for, you'll find there is no room for lack, hurt, or want. The attitude of gratitude: the great, full feeling.
Peter McWilliams
Image
We are not responsible for every thought that goes wandering through our mind. We are, however, responsible for the ones we hold there. We're especially responsible for the one's we put there.
Peter McWilliams

The comfort zone takes our greatest aspirations and turns them into excuses for not bothering to aspire.

Our thoughts create our reality - where we put our focus is the direction we tend to go.
