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.

Do your part

Statistics of good behaviour

Do unto others 20% better than you expect them to do unto you, to correct for subjective error.

Linus Pauling

Sometimes all it takes is a little bit of math.

Just be a little bit kinder, better, a little bit more awesome, than you would every person want to be, it will pay off instantly.

Good rule of thumb

Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don’t.

Bill Nye

Well maybe not literally everyone know something you really want to know, but that does not matter. What matters is the idea to listen carefully. Always be open to people and their stories and never think you know enough. Breath information and knowledge like you breath air after a long dive!

Leave fear behind

Everything you want is on the other side of fear.

Jack Canfield

The more you move out of your comfort zone, the more rewarding your efforts will be. Leave your fear behind, give yourself a little push every now and then and experience true freedom – realising that fear is just your brain telling you to be careful!

The key to achievement

The secret of making something work in your lives is first of all, the deep desire to make it work; then the faith and belief that it can work; then the hold that clear definite vision in your consciousness and see it working out step by step, without one thought of doubt or disbelief.

About getting up early

Hey there!

So today I had to get up pretty early, although I’m pretty sick.
As you can think, the first thing that came to my sleepy mind today was:

“Waahhh, stay in the warm bed, get back to sleep, don’t move!”

Still, I managed to get up and start a beatiful morning, and that was because I had very damn good and motivating reasons to do so.

That made me realise two important truths about getting up early:
