My riches consist not in the extent of my possessions but in the fewness of my wants.

Forgiveness
Maybe some of you are in a situation where you can relate:
To forgive is to permanently shed hurt feelings and to put something away. It means drawing a line under something and saying, “Finished.”… The courage to forgive is gigantic, an the courage to acknowledge the needs to forgive is perhaps even greater.

Get to know yourself
Be sure of the foudnation of your life. Know why you life as you do. Be ready to give a reason for it. Do not, in such matter as life, build an opinion or custom on what you guess is true. Make it a matter of certainty and science.

Stop your excuses and get going!
If you wait for everything to be perfect according to your preconceived plan, then you may well wait forever. If you go out and work with the current of life, you may find that success comes from building upon small things.

When you don’t have a grip on life, it will definitely get a grip on you.

Take action!
It is better to be boldly decisive and risk being wrong than to  agonize at length and be right too late.

Leadership
Well, concerning recent events, this might be relevant:
You can’t wait aroung for someone else to act. I had been looking for leaders, but I realised that leadership is about being the first to act.
