Dieter F. Uchtdorf Quotes

Just where you are-that's the place to start!

You can only begin where you find yourself

To be in touch with yourself requires great sensitivity to everything that's going on here and now.

The most important thing about getting somewhere is starting right where we are.

Work to recognize the primary importance of the present moment. A good little pointer toward that is to ask yourself, "What is my relationship with the present moment? How am I relating to it?"

In yourself right now is all the place you've got.

Never waste time and energy wishing you were somewhere else, doing something else. Accept your situation and realize you are where you are, doing what you are doing, for a very specific reason.

You are a success when you have made friends with your past, are focused on the present, and are optimistic about your future

From this moment onwards you can be an entirely different person, filled with Love and understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every thought and deed.

You are not going to find yourself anywhere except right where you are.

Every moment has a momentous gift for you.

Begin where you are and what you are.
