Dr. Kerby's Words of Wisdom

Show up for your life, and live each day fully.

Many people don't even show up for their own lives. Show up for yours and live each day to the fullest.

Find the joy in all situations.

Happiness is wanting what you have, not having what you want.

Don’t take things personally.
- You can’t choose how others act, but you can choose how you respond to them.
Forgive.
- When you hold a grudge you are the one burdened; not the person you are upset at. They may not even know you are upset!
Avoid debt where you can.

There is an opportunity cost when you borrow with interest due.

Play as hard as you work.
