Alan Cohen Quotes

A lot of times, we are trapped by our own false sense of security. You can do whatever it is you put your mind to. Your goal is to find your purpose.

The only limits to the possibilities in your life tomorrow are the buts you use today.

The only limit is the one you set yourself.

We tend to minimize the things we can do, the goals we can accomplish, and for some equally strange reason we think other people can accomplish things that we cannot. I want you to understand that that is not true. You have deep reservoirs of talent and ability within you that you can bring to the surface and achieve all that you desire

I believe the only limitations are the ones that we accept.

We are all more capable than we think we are.

Most of the reasons people think they can't do something are reasons they've created. Everything you do is up to you. Part of life is realizing that you have much more potential and ability than you'd ever know. However, it is up to you to reach inside, face the fears, and unleash that which really drives you.

I've figured out the secret. Your mind is your power; you have to work with your mind and work with your own thoughts about your own life. If you spend so much time thinking, "This industry is male-dominated. It's sexist. It's this. It's that," then that's what the picture will always be. I remember when I was coming up, I didn't have those thoughts. My mom told me I could be whatever I wanted to be and I could be as bright of a star as I was meant to be. So, that's where I put all of my focus and my thought...into what I could do. And I carry that with me now.

I always worked pretty steadily. But maybe out of some kind of fear, I put the brakes on letting myself be as successful as I'd like to be. More and more, I've taken the brakes off and let whatever happens happen.

I think every individual has his or her own power, and it's a matter of working, taking time and defining what that power is.

On some level, we as human beings can be who we want to be.

With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world.

Freedom is man's capacity to take a hand in his own development. It is our capacity to mold ourselves.

Don't be limited by the expectations of others. You can always be better and do more.

Learning too soon our limitations, we never learn our powers.

You can do anything you want to do.

It took me a long, long time to break the chains that's inside me.

The only thing holding us back is ourselves.

Let each become all that he was created capable of being.

Whoever I am, or whatever I am doing, some kind of excellence is within my reach.

I understood that I am a lot bigger than what I do, that I have a bigger potential.

I refuse to allow the excuses in my mind to grow into giants that keep me from living up to my full potential.

The only thing that can stop me from being me is me.

The only limitations that I can have are the ones that I set on myself.

Belief in limits creates limited people
