You’re talented

I believe that every person is born with talent.

It’s not about money

I’ve learned that making a ‘living’ is not the same thing as ‘making’ a life.

Take your time

Well, this quote seems to fit perfectly regarding the 100k-Celebration:

All great achievements require time.

Maya Angelou

Don’t forget, even the smallest steps add up. Rome was not built in one day!

There are no overnight-successes

What is success?

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Maya Angelou

What all successful people (especially enterpreneurs) have in common is that they really enjoy what they do for a living.

They like their work, their lifestyle, they like whatever they put their hands on.

This attitude is interesting because it works in two ways. You start doing stuff you like and soon enough you will find out about many more things you like. Always chose from a pool of interesting activities and I promise you there are things in there which are not only fun but will pay for your life.

I believe

I do believe. I believe in talent, determination and hard work. I believe that YOU are talented and that YOU can make a difference.

I believe that every person is born with talent.

Maya Angelou

This is not a stupid saying. Think about it: Every person is born with a talent. Talent meaning something you are good at and you like at the same time! That means you can make the world a better place by doing some job extremely well and at the same time you will be rewarded with a fun and awesome life.

But it is your decision. Don’t hold back, don’t settle for mediocrity! Find your passions and your talents and work on them. Practice, Practice, Practice!

Enjoy,

Like yourself!

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Maya Angelou

In my experience people tend to be too strict with themselves.

Especially people who are into self-improvement are often very self-concerned and say stuff like “I don’t like myself at the moment, I’m too lazy, to undisciplined, whatever.”

They think they have to behave according to their ideals, and therefore intrerpret the difference between ideal and reality as a lack of their own skill or quality.

The point is: Improving is more important than being the best! Self-Improvement and this whole motivation-branch is about improving your life every day, not about living the perfect life.

Therefore you have to forgive yourself, you have to like yourself and your life. In the end, who is going to like you, if you can’t like you for yourself?

Being happy with what you got and realizing that you, at this moment, are an awesome person, that is what it is all about. Work on that and everything else will be taken care of!

Have a nice day,
