Its your decisions and not your conditions that chnage your destiny The secret of success is using PAIN and PLEASURE instead of pain and pleasure using you! If you do that you are in control , otherwise life is!! NOTHING IN LIFE HAS ANY MEANING EXCEPT THAT MEANIING YOU GIVE IT Things do not change, we change Its not actual pain that drives us but our fear that something will lead to pain Its not pleasure that dirves us, but our belief-our sense of certainity that somehow taking a certain action will ITS NOT THE EVENTS OF OUR LIFES THAT SHAPE US , BUT OUR BELIEFS AS TO WHAT THOSE EVENTS MEAN!
