Priorities and a fire burning within

You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage – pleasently, smilingly, nonapelogetically – to say ‘no’ to other things. And the way to do that is by having a bigger ‘yes’ burning inside.

Pick the right salary

The poorer we are inwardly, the more we try to enrich ourselves outwardly.

Bruce Lee

When it comes to making money, it is not all about money.

What seems paradox at first, makes great sense, once you understood the concept. Money is not an end in itself, never can be. You salary should be a happy feeling, a feeling of achievement and of purpose.

Your job should fulfil you and be a happy part of your life instead of money-giving torture. Think about this considering your recent and future jobs.

Forgive and let go

The grudge you hold onto is like a hot coal you intend to throw at someone, but you’re the one that gets burned.

Try to imagine a life without timekeeping

Try to imagine a life without timekeeping
You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie.
Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays.
Man alone measures time.
Man alone chimes the hour.
And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.
A fear of time running out.
