Simple Holiday Happiness from Janice Taylor, Weight Loss Coach, Hypnotherapist, Author, Artist, Positarian<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

One of the things both Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> and I love to say about permanent weight loss a.k.a. weight removal a.k.a. slimming down (use whichever phrase fits you best) is that it is simple<\/strong>. That\u2019s right. Weight loss is simple.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simple. Simple. Simple. <\/em>
\n But simple isn\u2019t necessarily easy. Is it?
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Here 9 quotes<\/strong> that back up my theory about simple vs. easy;
\n9 quotes<\/strong> that can help you adjust or maybe even change your thinking.<\/p>\n

9 Simple But Not Easy Quotes to Chew On This Holiday Season<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.\u201d ~ Dalai Lama XIV<\/p>\n

\u201cSimple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it\u2019s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.\u201d ~ Steve Jobs<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s all very simple. But maybe because it’s so simple, it’s also hard.\u201d ~ Natsuki Takaya<\/p>\n

\u201cSimplicity is ultimately a matter of focus.\u201d ~ Ann Voskamp<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most complicated skill is to be simple.\u201d ~ Dejan Stojanovic<\/p>\n

\u201cSimplicity is a great virtue but it requires hard work to achieve it and education to appreciate it. And to make matters worse: complexity sells better.\u201d ~ Edsger Wybe Dijkstra<\/p>\n

\u201cThe essence of life is not in the great victories and grand failures, but in the simple joys.\u201d ~ Jonathan Lockwood Huie<\/p>\n

\u201cI woke to the sound of rain.\u201d ~ Sylvia Plath<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen it’s all said and done, the only thing that matter in life are so damn simple. Family, friends. being safe and well. I think before the war a lot of people got sucked in by the crap on TV. They thought having the right shoes or the right jeans or the right car really mattered. Boy were we ever dumb.\u201d ~ John Marsden<\/p>\n
