"Thriving ... that's fighting. Surviving ... is barely staying alive."
-Jillian Michaels

"Sometimes, people will hear you and be able to change their behavior. But often, their behavior has more to do with their own need for your approval than with your need for support. No matter what their response is, you need to be firm and hold your ground. At the end of the day, your health is your responsibility."
-Jillian Michaels

“Be brave and be patient. Have establishment in yourself; trust in the significance of your life and the purpose of your passion. You are strong enough to sit in the space between spaces and grant divine inspiration to shed some light. When you place positive energy and productive effort into the world it will come back to you. Occasionally in ways you might not immediately comprehend and on a time frame you didn’t expect. Look. Listen. Learn. Stay open. Your destiny is awaiting you.”
