The only difference between a poor person and a wealthy one is the future.  Whatever happened to them in the past is no longer relevant.  We all live in the present moment regardless of our life situation.  No matter what happens in the present moment, in a split second the present will become the past.  Not worrying about the future enables you to enjoy what you have already and are doing in the present. ~ Kochvai Ohr

To overcome your negative habits, view each day as if it is the first day of your life.  Have a fresh view of things each and every day. ~  R’ Yeruchem Levovitz zt”l

Share the wonders of the Almighty with your friends and relatives in order to give them a greater appreciation for the power of the Creator. ~ Ralbag

Even if you have devoted a lot of time and effort to some project, if you presently become aware that it is better to cancel it, do so.  The fact that you have invested much energy is irrelevant.  Deal only with the question: “Is this the right thing to do now?” ~ Chayai Hamussar

When you could have given a smaller donation and other people would have considered that amount sufficient, your giving a larger sum shows that it comes from sincere generosity.

When you feel anxiety about a future event, imagine the worst and accept it.  This has a very calming effect.  For example, if you are afraid you will miss a bus and feel anxiety, imagine you have already missed it and accept the consequences.  If you are afraid you will be fired from your job, imagine you have already been fired and accept it. ~ R’ Zelig Pliskin
