On a Coin Flip
"When undecided on a difficult decision, flip a coin. When the coin is in the air, you suddenly know which side you really want."
On I Don't vs. I Can't
"I don't is experienced as a choice, so it feels empowering. I can't isn't a choice, it's a restriction."
On Appreciating Your Body
"The most important thing is to respect and appreciate the body you have. The journey matters more than the destination."
On Better Learning
"People who read ten pages, then close the book and write a summary, remember 50 percent more than people who read ten pages four times."
On When Not to Make Important Decisions
"Never make an important decision when your emotions are in control. Wait until you've relaxed and can think clearly."
On Doing the Best You Can With What You Have
"Success means doing the best we can with what we have. Success is the doing, not the getting."
On Turning Intentions into Actions
"I always wrote down my goals. It wasn't sufficient just to tell myself lose twenty pounds. I had to make it very specific."
