Quotes

Happiness is a byproduct of reducing distortions and improving communication rather than an end in itself. People don't realize how their inner dialogue is affecting the way they think and feel about themselves, and they certainly don't realize how these distorted thoughts contribute to depression, anxiety, and relationship problems.
