A person who is nice to you but is not nice to the waiter is not a nice person.

Get it over with!
Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.
William James
It is true is it not?
That one damned task that you reschedule on a daily basis, it is there in your head, torturing you, killing your ability to fully enjoy anything.
You can get rid of it, you have the power to do so.
Just get it over with.
Start working on it, the rest will come easily, just get started and see where it takes you!

Blame
The superior man blames himself. The inferior man blames others.
Don Shula
Something went wrong? Better look for a scapegoat right?
Wrong!
You either take responsibility and fix it or at least you try to help fixing it.
Who cares who is to blame? Problems are not solved by finding fault, they are solved by being fixed.

Be like a tree
Okay I may have exaggerated, do not take this too literally, but there are many aspects of a tree that we could use very well:
Stand out tall and proud
Go out on a limb
Remember your roots
Drink plenty of water
Be content with your natural beauty
Enjoy the view

Who is responsible?
Who is responsible for your misery/luck? Fate? Well maybe fate or some greater power controlls circumstances but you control everything else!
I don’t control life but I control how I react to it.
Macklemore
It is very important to understand that your mental state defines wether you are in a happy or in a sad place.
Be happy, consciously decide to be happy!

Make this world a better place
A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world. Everyone you meet is your mirror.
Ken Keyes
You can not simply blame other people for being rude or selfish.
Walk around the world and spread kindness, joy and happiness and you will be payed back hundreds of times.

Use your brains
To repeat what others have said, requires education; to challenge it, requires brains.
Mary Pettibone Poole
While mere education may bring you a steady income or even financial wealth in a long-term it will most certainly fail to bring you happiness and satisfaction.
Use your brains, think and question. Do not be stupid.

Words to live by
Epic:
The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem.
Do you understand?

What is success?
Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.
Maya Angelou
What all successful people (especially enterpreneurs) have in common is that they really enjoy what they do for a living.
They like their work, their lifestyle, they like whatever they put their hands on.
This attitude is interesting because it works in two ways. You start doing stuff you like and soon enough you will find out about many more things you like. Always chose from a pool of interesting activities and I promise you there are things in there which are not only fun but will pay for your life.

Start with yourself
Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
