An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it’s going to launch you into something great. So just focus, and keep aiming.

Mindset!
We are all bound by chains. These chains have a name. The first is fear. The second is doubt. What separates warriors from non-coms, men from boys is the recognition that these chains are not on ou wrists or ankles, but in our mind. And we have only to deny them their power, to break them and be free.

For the people in school/college/university/any learning environment
I did not come to college to complain about finals, I came to kick their ass.
Random tweet

This is what you got to work with!

Do not underestimate yourself
Promise me you’ll always remember that you’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
Christopher Robin to Winnie the Pooh
Never ever underestimate yourself. You set your own limits and therefore underestimating your powers is like cutting them.
As long as you live with a limited set of beliefs you will never reach your full potential. Dream big, believe in your greatness!

Take what you want!
We spend our whole lives holding back.
Imagine how quickly you can succeed if you just take what you want.
Dennis Rogers – Far Cry 3
Think about it, everyone is holding back so damn often. Several times a day you make compromises, you are polite, you do not won’t to offend people, you do not want to stress people.
What if you just took what you wanted? Well, chances are you’d get it!
While it is totally normal to be holding back from time to time for reasons of politeness or simply because you care it is also very important and I encourage you to just take what you want from time to time. You have to learn that noone really gifts you anything for no reason.
Asking nicely often times is enough reason, just be bold and take what you want!

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses – behind the lines, in the gym and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.
Muhammad Ali
People sometimes think that competitions are won when they are held but in many cases that is wrong. Without preparations noone will win any competition or event.
If you carefully consider how and how well every participant is prepared you can get a pretty accurate picture of who is going to win.
The problem is that during preparation you do not get rewards. You work your ass of for the possible but not granted success. So believe in your success, trust your abilities and push through preparations!

Get it over with!
Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.
William James
It is true is it not?
That one damned task that you reschedule on a daily basis, it is there in your head, torturing you, killing your ability to fully enjoy anything.
You can get rid of it, you have the power to do so.
Just get it over with.
Start working on it, the rest will come easily, just get started and see where it takes you!

Blame
The superior man blames himself. The inferior man blames others.
Don Shula
Something went wrong? Better look for a scapegoat right?
Wrong!
You either take responsibility and fix it or at least you try to help fixing it.
Who cares who is to blame? Problems are not solved by finding fault, they are solved by being fixed.

Be like a tree
Okay I may have exaggerated, do not take this too literally, but there are many aspects of a tree that we could use very well:
Stand out tall and proud
Go out on a limb
Remember your roots
Drink plenty of water
Be content with your natural beauty
Enjoy the view
