Alan Watts The best use of imagination is creativity. The worst use of imagination is anxiety. Deepak Chopra What's the world's greatest lie?...

Paulo Coelho Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can. Paul Tournier Worrying is carrying tomorrow's load with today's strength- carrying two days at once. It is moving into tomorrow ahead of time. Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength. Corrie Ten Boom "If the problem can be solved why worry? If the problem cannot be solved worrying will do you no good.” Shantideva  EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Janet L Butler  Executive Producer at Disruptive Film and Audio Productions Ltd.
