• The only person who should ever have to live by your standards, noushin, is you.
  Let everyone else off the hook।
• A mirror never lies, noushin, and neither does time and space as a reflection of what you're thinking.
  If you put it out there, it has to come back. No matter how much it weighs, glitters, or costs.
  It's the law -
• Always keep in mind, noushin, that no matter what has happened, you did the very best you could.
  And so did those who may have let you down।
• Often, noushin, you don't know what you can do until you do it; what you can be until you become it; or what you can have until you have it.
  But hey, that never stopped you before!
• Little tiny dreams, noushin, require little tiny thoughts and little tiny steps.
  Great big dreams require great big thoughts and little tiny steps।
• It won't matter that 10,000 doors might be slammed in your face, noushin, because when door number 10,001 flies open, revealing pathways of jade and gardens of love, with flowers dancing, fountains sparkling, friends blushing, moonbeams beaming, and abundance abounding, you'll completely forget about all the other doors।
• Q: noushin, what would you call a world where each challenge bears gifts, your enemies are ancient friends in disguise, and by simply pretending your dreams have already come true mountains are moved?
  A: Earth।
• All you have to do, noushin, is think about what you want often enough that you start talking about it and moving with it, even if you have to fake it।
• No one really cares about your "stuff," noushin, if you don't care about your "stuff."
  They're far more interested in their own "stuff।"
• When you realize that by changing your perspective, big things can be seen as little things, noushin, it becomes much harder to worry about anything।
• Sometimes not knowing what you want, noushin, is enough to go on।
• Always listen to your doubts, noushin.
  Not just because they might teach you of your fears, but because, sometimes, they might teach you of your wisdom।
• Don't be afraid। You needn't slay the beast nor scale the entire mountain. That's not how it's done. You only need to move through today, noushin. Think of the distance you've already covered. Focus on your strengths. Let each new step remind you of your freedom. Let every breath you take remind you of your power. Seek out friends and guides; they're anxious to help. You're not alone. You're understood. This road has been walked before. Dance life's dance, just a few steps at a time, and in the wink of an eye you will wonder to yourself, "What beast, what mountain? Was I having a dream?"
• The more you "enjoy," noushin, the richer you become.
  Anything, and in every way।
• Any and all forms of separation - disconnects, divides, partings, breakups, and goodbyes - noushin, are temporary. Very.
  You'll be together far, far longer than you will ever be apart।
• You didn't have to learn how to make gravity work, did you, noushin?
  You just had to learn to deal with it।
• Impatience is a sign of hurrying; hurrying is a sign of worrying; worrying is a sign of fear; and fear is a sign, noushin, that someone has temporarily forgotten that it's never too late to change their thoughts and therefore their "things।" And for these reasons, time will forever be on their side.
• True, noushin, it's not always easy to imagine places you've never been but dream of going, owning things you've never had but dream of having, and being the type of person you've not yet been but have always aspired to be... but wouldn't it be easy to imagine the after-party? With best friends and family in the swankiest club you know while your favorite music plays. Proposing toasts, receiving toasts, crying happy tears. Getting hugs, hearing congratulations, leading the conga-line. And otherwise carrying on as you do when you're feeling light as a feather and all the world makes sense.
  And that should pretty much do it।
• If you knew just how scared most people are, noushin, you'd be even braver.
  Running faster, jumping higher, and laughing लौदर.
