Power Quotes From The Show
[click_to_tweet tweet=”‘If you take the time to get deep with what you really need, it creates peace inside of you that you've never felt before and you start realizing that everything you have is enough.' – Aleks Rybchinskiy of @PrimalFusionATX ” quote=”‘If you take the time to get deep with what you really need, it creates peace inside of you that you've never felt before and you start realizing that everything you have is enough.' – Aleks Rybchinskiy of @PrimalFusionATX “]
Everything You Have Is Enough
“If you take the time to get deep with what you really need, whether you're alone or in a relationship, it creates peace inside of you that you've never felt before and you start realizing that everything you have is enough and everything you don't have is just waiting to show up in your life when you're willing to receive it.” – Aleks Rybchinskiy
The Truth About Mastery
“Have I mastered what I'm feeling? How I approach the world? How I relate to the world? How I connect to the world? If the answer is, ‘no,' then I just keep trying because that's my ultimate goal. That's the beauty of the world of health and wellness. There is ‘mastery' but it can never be mastered because it's always changing.” – Aleks Rybchinskiy
