Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.
Henry David Thoreau
What are you doing in order to achieve your goals?
Are you actually doing something about it or do you merely dream about achieveing your goals and let your daydreaming distract you?
There is a reason, the word is called ‘business’!
Get started, do your work!

Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.
Henry David Thoreau
Some people are so poor, all they have got left is money.
While money is a nice thing you should see it as a resource, not as a source for happiness. Wealth is not mesured in currency but in feelings. Happiness is not correlated to your account balance, remember that.

Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
Sir Richard Steele
Reading is so important. It is not only an exercise that will bring you advantages, it is also damn enjoyable. Be it educative information or just a novel, you should always read at least one good book! But reading is even more.
How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book.
Henry David Thoreau
Think about how books have defined you in the past. Think about books that really changed you, books that really got under your skin. Those books are to be honoured and they are to be found so you must never stop reading everyday! There are enough awesome books to give you more than a lifetime of enjoyable reading time.
Reading will not only give you joy and pleasure but a great advantage in life experience. Yes, making own experiences is worth infinitively more, but you can not experience more than a lifetime by that. Books enhance your experience in a pretty fast time and give you much information you would have never found out yourself.

Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it
Henry David Thoreau
One of the main problems of self development, no matter if you consider books, internet, audiobooks or live talks, is that everything is theory!
Of course, theory is important and interesting, but too many people get stuck there. They “know” the so called secrets of success and have the abilities to achieve everything, but they fail because they don’t get shit done!
Don’t make that mistake and sit around, thinking about how to suceed. Get out there, get in action, work, do, make, create, destroy, build, run, jump, draw, sing, DO ANYTHING!
Don’t be successfull in theory, nothing is more dissatisfying!
You must not only aim right, but draw the bow with all your might.
Henry David Thoreau

Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.

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