“What we do is sometimes we get so preoccupied with worrying about things we can't control, that when we can get to the things that we can do something about, we're worn out and tired. And what I try to do is get people to simply make a commitment to be someone that when you talk to yourself, you change the way you talk to yourself. To improve the way that I talk to myself, the way I see myself, the secret that's not a secret, Gabe, is self-love and self-acceptance.” ~Greg Harden
