Memorable Quotes"Every word that you speak is either reinforcing the person you’ve been or rehearsing the person you’re becoming.""Stop bringing resistance to your current reality and stop speaking about your problems—speaking about them only strengthens them." "Your mouth is the portal between your inner world and the world you’re creating. Before you speak, ask yourself: is what I’m about to say strengthening the person I’m becoming or the person I’m trying to leave behind?"Connect With DavidInterested in going deeper with us?
