“…I’ve always known that you have to take responsibility for yourself, and as soon as you point the finger at other people, you’ve really lost the plot. Listen: I’ve had the temptation to do it. I’m a human being on this planet. I have to fight the temptation to want to blame things on other people, but becoming empowered you realise that you have the power and it’s important not to point the finger at anybody else. If you feel unhappy, do something about it! And usually, doing something about it has nothing to do with anyone else. It has to do with you changing your mind. A miracle is a change in your perception. If you look at something from a distance, it looks smaller, but is it actually changing? No it’s not; it’s just where you’re standing.”
