Give me a stock clerk with a goal, and I will give you a man who will make history. Give me a man without a goal, and I will give you a stock clerk.

Hard work
Hard work spotlights the character of people: Some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don’t turn up at all.

The cure for anything is salt water: Sweat, tears, or the sea.

Spending time
The wise man knows that it is better to sit on the banks of a remote mountain stream than to be emperor of the whole world.

Losing yourself
To dare is to risk losing your footing for a moment. Not to dare is to risk losing yourself.

Make use of the storms
When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what it’s all about.

Thanks to the loyal bunch
As many of you know, one of my goals for this blog was and is to reach one million views. So far I reached a little bit more than 500.000 views, and I am really proud of that.
But what makes me way more proud and very thankful are my loyal readers, the subscribers who get my posts every day. Some of you read the mail, some the rss-feed and some might just read the posts via wordpress. Together you make up the loyal readership that I can address every single day and as of this week you reached the 2000-people-barrier.
Wow! To be honest, it took me quite a while to grasp the fact that every day or at least every other day, 2000 people are reading my posts. As you know I do not use this blog for anything else than posting quotes and (very infrequently) some texts about motivation and I intend to keep it that way. I am very grateful for your loyalty and I enjoy the constant growth of my readership a lot. You are a big reason for me to prepare a post every day, you give me the motivation to keep this blog alive. And in return, I try my best to give you some motivation for your everyday struggles.
That’s it for today, just a big THANK YOU for your support and your trust in my content.
Best wishes,
Phil
