More quotes by Peter McWilliams
No matter what you do, no matter how stupid, dumb or damaging you judge it to be, there is a lesson to be learned from it.
Peter McWilliams
To visualize is to see what is not there, what is not real - a dream. To visualize is, in fact, to make visual lies. Visual lies, however, have a way of coming true.
Peter McWilliams
Wealth is enjoying what we already have, not getting more of what we think will make us happy.
Peter McWilliams
The simple solution for disappointment depression Get up and get moving. Physically move. Do. Act. Get going.
Peter McWilliams
Courage, contrary to popular belief, is not the absence of fear. Courage is the wisdom to act in spite of fear.
Peter McWilliams
Our thoughts create our reality-not instantly, necessarily, as in Poof! There it is - but eventually. Where we put our focus - our inner and outer vision - is the direction we tend to go. That's our desire, our intention.

No matter what you do, no matter how stupid, dumb or damaging you judge it to be, there is a lesson to be learned from it. No matter what happens to you, no matter how unfair, inequitable or wrong, there's something you can take from the situation and use for your advancement.
Peter McWilliams
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
Contrary to popular belief, a good number of transvestites-both male and female-are also heterosexual. Just because they want to get dressed up like the opposite sex does not necessarily mean they want to go to bed with the same sex. Some have successful heterosexual marriages & enjoy the most delightful shopping experiences.
Peter McWilliams
In reality, serendipity accounts for one percent of the blessings we receive in life, work and love. The other 99 percent is due to our efforts.
Peter McWilliams
It is a risk to love. What if it doesn't work out? Ah, but what if it does.
Peter McWilliams
For many, negative thinking is a habit which, over time, becomes an addiction.
Peter McWilliams
This is a lifetime of good-byes. In our time, we will say good-bye to cherished people, things, and ideas. Eventually, we say good-bye to life itself with our death. Learn to say a good good-bye. Allow yourself to mourn each loss. As with a physical wound, the body has its own schedule for healing. It will tell you when it has healed.
Peter McWilliams
Because people are afraid of fear, they give up acre after acre of their own life.
Peter McWilliams
If you're not playing a big enough game, you'll screw up the game you're playing just to give yourself something to do.
Peter McWilliams
People who want to appear clever rely on memory. People who want to get things done make lists.
Peter McWilliams
If you want peace, stop fighting. If you want peace of mind, stop fighting with your thoughts.

If you were arrested for being kind to yourself..would there be enough evidence to convict you?

As the world gets dumber and dumber, I feel more and more at home.
