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.

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.

Time is (more than) money

One realizes the full importance of time only when there is little of it left. Every man’s greatest capital asset is his unexpired years of productive life.

Take your time, enjoy

Most people rush after pleasure so fast that they rush right past it.

Let me save you some time

The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him.

Next time you find yourself in an argument where the other person is clearly not interested in arguing but absolutely sure that he is right no matter what, get out there as soon as you can. Enjoy your time.

Well, this quote seems to fit perfectly regarding the 100k-Celebration:

All great achievements require time.

Don’t forget, even the smallest steps add up. Rome was not built in one day!
