Just do it!

Either you run the day or e day runs you.

Jim Rohn

The moment you start thinking like “I should be doing this, why am I so lazy and just browsing the web” you should actually just get over it and do it!

Don’t think about it, don’t think about pro and con, just start with it, that is the best way!

A bit of Sunday Courage

Courage is knowing what not to fear.

Plato

Courage is not absence of fear nor is it liking fear. It is to know your fears and to be able to live with them.

Know what you fear and know what certain things you just should not fear, no matter how you feel. You can do that, I’m sure!

How to treat people

Complain privately. Compliment publicly.

Show people some respect! Compliments work best with an audience because it multiplies the positive effect of bein complimented.

Complain on the other hand does not work at all with an audience involved. If you complain so someone in public he thinks about the humiliation and his social situation but not about the essence of the critique. Complain in private and in a nice tone on the contrary and he can make the best of your complaints.

Show some greatness, do it the right way!

Time will pass anyway

Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.

About self-discipline

He who conquers others is strong; He who conquers himself is mighty.

Lao-Tzu

Forcing others to do something you want requires strength, but is extremely easy compared to forcing yourself to do something. Think about the last time you had an argument with yourself and the lazy you won. Got one? Next time you will win! Become mighty, become disciplined!

Being remarkable

Don’t live down to expectations. Go out there and do something remarkable.

Wendy Wasserstein

Try this: Watch yourself, watch your behaviour, your actions, your habits, and ask yourself -Why am I doing this? Am I doing this because I really want to or because everybody is doing it, because I feel this expectation that I should be and act conformable.

In most cases this questioning won’t lead to a change. You wont start reinventing your life, but as soon as questioning the purpose of everything becomes a reflex, you’ll recognize instantly when you drift from living your own life to living some different expectations. And nothing holds you back from being and acting remarkable…
