Be inspired!

I could never tell where inspiration begins and impulse leaves off. I suppose the answer is in the outcome. If your hunch proves a good one, you were inspired; if it proves bad, you are guilty of yielding to thoughtless impulse.

Do what you love!

Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there’s love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.

Happiness is within

The greatest part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, not our circumstances.

You know your behind the scenes

One reason we struggle with insecurity: we’re comparing our behind the scenes to everyone else’s highlight reel.

Steven Furtic

Often people claim that they have so boring lives compared to “others”.

They say they don’t get shit done, procrastinate the whole time and others are sooo productive and kick ass.

Think about it: You see them while they present themselves, while they are at their best performance. You see yourself 24/7, you know everything you do.

Therefore don’t worry: Everyone procrastinates, everyone struggles with getting up early, everyone hase basically the same fucking problems. It is your decision how big your let them appear for yourself.

Growth!

It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.

Albus Dumbledore

Well wherever this quote comes from, Dumbledore said it in the final Harry Potter movie and I found it quite appeling.

People who rant about things like “Uhh, I had such a bad childhood, I was born into a poor family” etc. just should shut the hell up and start living their lives!

Don’t do nothing

I’m a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.

Thomas Jefferson

As lons as one does nothing, one can’t be lucky.

Why? Because if you don’t to anything, you don’t risk anything and therefore can’t be lucky.

So don’t be stupid, do a lot of things, no matter what!
