We are all, right now, living the life we choose.
Peter McWilliams
Emotion is energy in motion.
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
Because people are afraid of fear, they give up acre after acre of their own life.
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.

We can do anything we want. The next time you hear yourself saying, to another-and especially yourself-I Can't, take a deep breath and say instead, My resources are otherwise engaged.
Peter McWilliams
If you're not actively involved in getting what you want, you don't really want it.
Peter McWilliams
Ultimately, censorship comes down to taste. What offends me may enlighten you. Do you want me deciding-based on my taste-what you should or should not be exposed to?
Peter McWilliams
All the things you think you should have done that you didn't do, and all the things you did that you think you shouldn't have done, accept them. You did (or didn't ) do them. That's reality. That's what happened. No changing the past.
Peter McWilliams
For now realize that you can change anything you want, but you can't change everything you want.
Peter McWilliams
Wealth is enjoying what we already have, not getting more of what we think will make us happy.
Peter McWilliams
It is a risk to love. What if it doesn't work out? Ah, but what if it does.
Peter McWilliams
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
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
Running from fear only strengthens fear-you are demonstrating that fear has power over you. Fear must be faced and gone through.
