“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.”

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

“You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”

“This too shall pass.”

“You don't have to be positive all the time. It's perfectly okay to feel sad, angry, annoyed, frustrated, scared, or anxious. Having feelings doesn't make you a negative person. It makes you human.”

“The only way out is through.”

“You are allowed to measure today in breaths instead of milestones. The next calm breath is a real place to start.”

“Getting through the next ten minutes is still getting through. Your mind does not have to settle all at once.”
