Attention Quote by Geneen Roth

“To discover what you really believe, pay attention to the way you act -- and to what you do when things don't go the way you think they should. Pay attention to what you value. Pay attention to how and on what you spend your time. Your money. And pay attention to the way you eat.” quote by Geneen Roth — Download Open image
