Why should we waste the best years of our lives earning money in order to enjoy a questionable freedom during the least valuable part.

What do you see?
It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.

Be good for something
Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

Being busy
Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.

Thinking over and over again
A single footstep will not make a path on the earth. So a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind.
To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again.
To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.

Prioritize
It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?
