A word about achievements

The value of achievement lies in the achieving.

Albert Einstein

I think every gamer can understand this 😉 Achieving is not a good thing because you gain something, some material, but rather because you have achieved something! Keep that in mind and then you’ll understand why people who win the lottery mostly don’t burst out of happiness.

Don’t procastinate!

While we are postponing, life speeds by.
Seneca

You may hestitate and you may postpone. But you have to be certain that life around you does not! As long as you are postponing and procrastinating, other people are speeding by and overtake you. It is not enough to be on the right track if you are not moving! Get your ass up and get shit done!

Make mistakes!

The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.
Elbert Hubbard

This is especially true when it comes to human relations. People have so much fear of making the mistakes that they eventually make the biggest mistake which is making nothing at all!

Often when I talk to people who have problems approaching strangers they come up with excuses like “What if they don’t like me?” “My hair looks bad today” blablabla!

Well there are no perfect moments therefore there is always the possibility to make mistakes. But making mistakes is not failing! Not trying is failing and so is making mistakes and not learning from it.

So don’t be shy, don’t be scared, just do it and the reward will be so much more than you can dream of right now, believe me!

Schedule!

You will never find time for anything. If you want the time, you must make it.
Charles Buxton

Great quote! Often people complain about having no time for fun things or use “I would like to, but I have no time” as an excuse. That’s bullshit for you’ve got as much time on your hands as everyone else. You got the same amount of time per day that Barack Obama, Michael Jackson or Roosevelt have or had!

Having time or not is just about priorities! Get your priorities straight in order to MAKE time for things you like!

That’s the way it works, you have to accept and work with that.

Chance for development

Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better.
Albert Camus

You can improve your life everyday. Every minute. Every second in fact! Don’t wait, don’t hestitate. Start today, start now!

Looking for easy ways?

Sometimes the easiest way is the hard way.
John Finn

There are situations in which the easiest way is still a hard way. Where you have to go through trouble, no matter what. Don’t get discouraged by that, you will be fine!

Sincere and honest development!

Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth.

To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential.

Hard work creats identification

The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender.

Vince Lombardi

The harder you work the more you will identificate yourself with your work, which makes it harder to surrender. That can be a good thing, because it helps being persistent, but it can make you blind and you could end up working like hell for nothing at all.
