Les Brown Quotes About Dreams

“The graveyard is the richest place on earth, because it is here that you will find all the hopes and dreams that were never fulfilled. The books that were never written.

“Fear does not have any special power unless you empower it by submitting to it.”

“If you’re not willing to risk, you cannot grow. If you cannot grow, you cannot be your best. If you cannot be your best, you cannot be happy. If you cannot be happy, what else is there?”

“When your WHY is big enough, you will find your WAY.”

Les Brown Quotes About Forgiveness

“Forgive yourself for your faults and mistakes and move on.”

“Forgive yourself first. Release the need to replay a negative situation over and over again in your mind. Don’t become a hostage to your past by always reviewing and reliving your mistakes. Don’t remind yourself of what you should have, could have, or would have been. Release it and let it go. Move on.”

“Forgive anyone who has caused you pain or harm. Keep in mind that forgiving is not for others. It is for you. Forgiving is not forgetting. It is remembering without anger. It frees up your power, heals your body, mind and spirit. Forgiveness opens up a pathway to a new place of peace where you can persist despite what has happened to you.”
