About mutual support!

A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
Erin Majors

This quote contains two important truths.

  1. You have to support the people around you. Help them exceed and therefore exceed yourself
  2. Peoeple have to be willing to be helped. A candle is easy to light, so are many people. But some people are more like rocks, which can only be moved by very strong or very persistent measures

Don’t underestimate small efforts!

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.
Vincent Van Gogh

Even though I have a strong believe in the power of impulse, Van Gogh is right about this one. You have to staple small things, to achieve great goals. Remember, excellence is a habit!
