“How you are used to being is not necessarily who you are …”

“

There are only 2 problems in life:
1) You don’t know what you want.
2) You know what you want but you don’t know how to get it.

There are only 2 solutions:
1) Make it up
2) Make it happen

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

“A man with one watch knows what time it is. A man with two is never sure.”

“God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference”

“Faced with the choice between changing one’s mind and proving that there is no need to do so, almost everyone gets busy on the proof.”

“Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits
in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.”

“God grant me the serenity to accept the people
I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can,
and the wisdom to know it’s ME.”

“If you want to truly understand something, try to change it.”

“It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.”

“They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.”

“Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.”

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

“Never give in, never give in, never; never; never; never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.”

“All most people want is a little more than they’ll ever get.”
