Move forward with the idea that what you want is already a part of your destiny; and all you must do is travel the path to reach your already blessed future.
Speaking With a Spoon Full of Sugar
It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. We’ve heard this all our lives, yet we still attempt to get what we want by making demands, using guilt trips, and expressing ourselves in a manipulative manner as if that is going to consistently get us what we want in life.
