You’ll make it!

Say: ‘I want to change, I want a better life.’ Then go ahead and do something. You’ll make it.

Choose!

Life is a matter of choice.

Short and painless -> painful and successful

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

Lance Armstrong

Pain is your friend. He will escort you all the way to success.

Behave like the person you want to be

It’s not who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you

Rachel Dawes

(in Christopher Nolans ‘Batman Begins’)

I’m often confronted with the opinion that the actual ‘me’ is this little guy sitting in ones head. You might also know the situation when you do something you don’t like and actual don’t want to do, you may think “this isn’t really me. Inside me I’m different”.

But ask yourself, who really cares? A personality, you only imagine, isn’t reality. Therefore, if you want do be different: Behave according to who you want to be, and you will become that person.

There is no such word as can’t

Hi there, my first quote is an excerpt from an interview with a guy from Indonesia who has a great attitude towards life

After 7 years being in a wheelchair I’ve done more in the life being in a chair than out of a chair. I still surf, I sail the world, I free dive  after many people said I couldn’t do that; and I think that comes  from connecting with nature, connecting with the energy of life, because we are all disabled in some way on the planet spiritually, mentally or physically, I got the easy part.
