Why We’re Misunderstood…

Never underestimate people’s ability to misinterpret you.  – Magnus Berggren

our skin

Johan Magnusson, one heck of a dynamic personality, was leading a fun class a couple days ago, where he displayed the above quote from his mentor!

Be Happy…

Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you’re off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they’re doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel — and then, you’ll love them all. Because the only reason you don’t love them, is because you’re using them as your excuse to not feel good. – Abraham

me

My happiness depends on me. Your happiness depends on you. We cannot use others as our excuse to not feel good. Let’s live this truth.

be happy

Be happy now. That’s our goal. Love everyone just the way they are.
