Everybody’s got a past. The past doesn’t equal the future unless you live there.

Never let anyone disturb your composure, deter your accomplishment, or destroy your happiness.

Five things you can’t control: What other people think of you. What other people do. What happens around you. The outcome of your efforts. The passage of time. So let go and focus on what you can control—what you do today.

A great attitude becomes a great mood. A great mood becomes a great day. A great day becomes a great year. A great year becomes a great life.
