6. “You're not ready. You're not ready, because you're not angry, Baxter. You must reach a point where you're angry at your old self, your old life, your addictions. You have to hate the way you were, and when this hatred and anger consumes you, then you'll have the determination not to go back there.”
John Grisham

15. “You are unable to sleep—people who are poor sleep. You must be able to forego sleep; if you sleep, you will miss out on an opportunity to succeed. You’ll be able to get through this. Don’t give up, don’t give in; you are stronger than your suffering.” Eric Thomas Strength Perseverance, Success Determination, Suffering Recovery, Strength, Determination, Recovery
19. “When tragedy occurs, it presents a choice. You can give in to the void, the emptiness that fills your heart, your lungs constricts your ability to think or even breathe. Or you can try to find meaning.” Sheryl Sandberg Resilience Focus, Mental Strength, Emotional Growth, Change Perspective, Hope, Recovery
22. “Being my friend meant not just comforting me in my grief but dealing with a level of anger that I’d never felt before and struggled to control. My anger scared me – and made me need the comfort of my friends even more.” Sheryl Sandberg Emotional Healing, Personal Grief, Friendship Strength, Support, Recovery, Growth
28. “We plant the seeds of resilience in the ways we process negative events. After spending decades studying how people deal with setbacks, psychologist Martin Seligman found that three P’s can stunt recovery: (1) personalization—the belief that we are at fault; (2) pervasiveness—the belief that an event will affect all areas of our life; and (3) permanence—the belief that the aftershocks of the event will last forever. The three P’s play like the flip side of the pop song “Everything Is Awesome”—“everything is awful.” The loop in your head repeats, “It’s my fault this is awful. My whole life is awful. And it’s always going to be awful.” Sheryl Sandberg Building Resilience, Psychological Insight, Overcoming Negativity, Resilience, Negativity, Recovery
