Look at it this way

The brick walls are there for a reason.

The brick walls are not there to keep us out.

The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something.

Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough.

They are there to stop the other people.

About defeat

To me, defeat in anything is merely temporary. Defeat simply tells me that something is wrong in my doing; it is a path leading to success and truth.

Think about quitting?

Don’t!

Perseverance is failing nineteen times and succeeding the twentieth.

Have ambitions

Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.

Salvador Dali

You tell me you are borde in life?

I do not want to hear that!

Be ambitious! It’s about hobbies, interests, passion, your job, your family. That is where your intelligence matters.

Are your excited?

If you are working on something exciting that you really care about, you don’t have to be pushed. The vision pulls you.

Steve Jobs

In life it is important to be pulled by dreams and ambitions.

You do not want to be pushed by your boss or debts, you do not want to be forced to do anything. You want to be pulled by happy, encouraging, motivating thoughts.

Therefore you have to discover yourself, find out about your passions and what you love. Once you have done that, everything will fall in place. Just follow your dreams and stick to them. 

In my experience no dream is too big or too extreme. Just be careful of dreaming too small, that is dangerous.

MONDAY!

Okay, guys, a new week is starting (at least the calendar says so here in Germany).

Pick one of your favourite tunes, pick something up-beat, something energetic. Next: Forget about families, friends, neighbours and the police. Next:

Play it fucking loud

Bob Dylan

Finaly: Have an awesome start into an awesome week! Let’s get the good mood started and kick this week’s ass!

Whoop, enjoy your day!

The ambivalence of happiness

Learn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.

Jim Rohn

I love this quote!

This is the essential thought in the pursuit of happiness.

Always reach for the stars, but do not make the mistake of seeing them as requirement to happiness. Combine modest gratitude with eager ambition. Be able to enjoy and at the same time crave for more!

Start today!

By taking a single step you’ve already outperformed millions of people who’ve made excuses.

Start today -whatever it may be- and be proud tommorow.

You’ll harvest in the future what you plant in the present, always remember this!
