More quotes by Peter McWilliams
Guilt is anger directed at ourselves - at what we did or did not do. Resentment is anger directed at others - at what they did or did not do.
Peter McWilliams
Be easier on yourself, on everyone, on everything. Suspend your judgments on the way things should be, must be, and ought to be. Suspending judgments gives you greater ease. Consider ease the antidote for disease.
Peter McWilliams
It's your life. Live it with people who are alive. It tends to be contagious.
Peter McWilliams
Our thoughts create our reality - where we put our focus is the direction we tend to go.
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
I see nothing wrong with the human trait to desire. In fact, I consider it integral to our success mechanism. Becoming attached to what we desire is what causes the trouble. If you must have it in order to be happy, then you are denying the happiness of the here and now.
Peter McWilliams
The irony is that the person not taking risks feels the same amount of fear as the person who regularly takes risks.
Peter McWilliams
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.
Peter McWilliams
Laughter is essential to our equilibrium, to our well-being, to our aliveness. If we're not well, laughter helps us get well. If we are well, laughter helps us stay that way.
Peter McWilliams
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
Write 10 times: 'Fear is my friend. Fear is the energy to do my best in a new situation.' You don't have to believe it just write it.
Peter McWilliams
Drugs, gambling, and prostitution are the Big Three underground 'moneymakers' in consensual crime. There would be, however, significant boosts to the economy if the stigma attached to the other consensual crimes were eliminated through legalization.
Peter McWilliams
To the degree we can live without the things of this world, we are wealthy.
Peter McWilliams
As with most consensual crimes, this prohibition of hemp is both silly and sinister.
Peter McWilliams
Acceptance is not a state of passivity or inaction. We are not saying you can't change the world, right wrongs or replace evil with good. Acceptance is, in fact, the first step to successful action. If you don't fully accept a situation precisely the way it is, you will have difficulty changing it.
Peter McWilliams
Do what you love and the necessary resources will follow.
Peter McWilliams
If you were arrested for being kind to yourself..would there be enough evidence to convict you?
Peter McWilliams
Worrying is the interest paid on a debt you may not owe.
Peter McWilliams
Choosing what you want to do, and when to do it, is an act of creation.
Peter McWilliams
In order to truly master the comfort zone, we must learn to love it.
Peter McWilliams
