For me: "Never forget that 50% of people are of less-than-average intelligence."
"If your beliefs exclude anyone ... you need better beliefs."
Time is an elusive bastard. Go do what you want now while you're young and invincible.
So true! I often get asked if I have any regrets or feel that I wasted my time living for the moment. My response has always been the same. I met beautiful people and made wonderful memories.
I've had a lot of fun and did a lot of good. I have very few regrets as to how I spent my time here thus far.
A couple of things among many.
1: It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.
Emiliano Zapata
2: The best you can possibly do with your life is live the motherfucking shit out of it.
Cheryl Strayed.
3: Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent.
Marilyn Von Savant
I write down quotes all the time that resonate with me, but these three will do for now.
Don't spend much time on your ski trip doing moguls..you'll miss your kneecaps when they're gone...
Never make a promise you cannot keep and keep every promise you make.
Never give an inch.
Unless it's all you have.
@Indubitably I shan’t reply to such an impertinent reply! ?
"Don't get married and have kids. It's a trap." - Mom
That's the advice I gave MY kids. Also, ALWAYS use protection..don't trust anyone's claims of infertility.
You teach people how to treat you. Okay, so this advice came from Dr. Phil, but it is brilliant. I never forget it.
Please, everything I say is gold that should be taught in school alongside the masters. Just kidding.
~ Never make permanent decisions with temporary emotions ~
Often when we are angry, excited, depressed etc., we make extreme decisions. Bad idea! Let yourself to be calm and content when making major decisions.
Very true
This is a simple one, if you have your health and have independence to move around and drive a car,etc and do what you want to do ,you have just about everything. ,don't take your health for granted
don't re-invent the wheel
people have gotten wealthy beyond all mankind doing so however!
It was simple, but it somehow stuck with me - and I am sure that it was more profound than my paraphrasing here.
Always remember - everybody has their own baggage, and that baggage will influence just about everything they do in life. Most of the time when somebody you have not knowingly done something bad to first treats you poorly - it's almost always not about you, it's something to do what that baggage they are carrying around with them.
Always be yourself unless you can be Batman, then always be Batman. ?
Had heard the same thing about being a Unicorn!
