You can only grow if you’re willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.
Brian Tracy

The world is moving so fast these days that the man who says it can’t be done is generally interrupted by someone doing it.
Elbert Hubbard
Awesome quote! I totally like the idea of someone who is always complaining and seeing negative things about stuff, someone who always points out, why things CAN’T possibly work out, is suddenly surpassed by someone who is just doing the stuff the critical guy was doubting to be possible ๐

Picking up the great idea of Felix and not naming this Post Dailymote 11/11/2010, but “Start Dreaming” ๐
All men dream:ย but not equally.ย Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity:ย but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.
T.E. Lawrence
Start Dreaming today, not tonight, start being dangerous!

It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
Harry S. Truman
Stop thinking about getting rewards for your efforts, start doing things just because you like to do them. You will soon realise that this experience is worth much more than doing things for reward ๐
By the way, over one month is over with almost daily posts, I didn’t think this blog would work out this well and I’ll keep it up ๐ Let me know if you got some criticism so I can rethink some things in order to enhance the quality of my blog ๐

Hey there ๐
Playing it safe is one of the most common ways to fail
Elliott Smith
It may not be obvious, but it lies in the nature of humans that we like to play things save and fear change. Often times we chose living a mediocre and boring maybe even painfull life over a risky and adventureful lifestyle. But why? We can take a look at stars, at heroes in movies, at successful companies and we will see that noone of them decided to play it safe.
It is important to take risks and be open to change, a life of stagnation can never satisfy someone. So be open, see ‘obstacles’ as chances and take them! Are you ready to live your life to the fullest?

Edit: I just found this old treasure after 1 hour of desperate searching ๐
Hey ๐ could not post yesterday since I visited some friends and hat not time and no computer to do so, but here is todays quote, a good one for a rainy sunday afternoon:
You see things and you say, ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were and say ‘Why not?’
George Bernard Shaw
It is about inventing incredible good things rather than copying the existing ones, because no matter how good you might be at imitating, you’ll always be the second person to do something.

Focus, guys!
Nothing interferes with my concentration.ย You could put on an orgy in my office and I wouldn’t look up.ย Well, maybe once.

Maybe no posts the next two days since I’m going to visit some friends and I won’t have much time and on top of that no internet access *.*

Good Day ๐
Hell!ย There ain’t no rules around here!ย We’re trying to accomplish somep’n.
Thomas Alva Edison
I really like this one because of its profound message. When you want to accomplish something you try to do so and give your best. Your are determinend and don’t waste your time with guidelines and stuff like that. You want to create something new, how can you work along with existing rules? Edison was right not to believe in the rules and limiting beliefs the peoeple had at his time and invented the fucking light bulb, so take him as an example for the truth of this lesson ๐

And don’t worry, if you don’t have an exact plan, Success is 10% inspiration, 90% last-minute changes. ๐
