Here are the quotes.

1. “When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.” (Marcus Aurelius)

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

A great way to attract positive energy is to feel gratitude as gratitude automatically shifts your vibration to one of abundance and positivity. And what more to be thankful for than your ability to think, to breathe, to experience and to love. A beautiful quote by Marcus Aurelius taken from his book – Meditations.

2. “At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want.” (Lao Tzu)

4. “You are never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true.” (Richard Bach)

5. “You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.” (Maya Angelou)

― Ralph Waldo Emerson

10. “It’s not important what other people believe about you, it’s only important what you believe about yourself.” (Rev Ike)

It’s not important what other people believe about you, it’s only important what you believe about yourself.

But once you realize that the only thing that matters in the end is your beliefs about yourself, you start to free yourself up. You stop the energy drain and in the process you start to conserve and attract more positive energy that you can reinvest into productive pursuits.
