Love Yourself

 

Love Yourself 

“...it is well known that a vital ingredient of success is not knowing that what you're attempting can't be done.”

― Terry Pratchett, Equal Rites

 

“You differ from a great man in only one respect: the great man was once a very little man, but he developed one important quality: he recognized the smallness and narrowness of his thoughts and actions. Under the pressure of some task that meant a great deal to him, he learned to see how his smallness, his pettiness endangered his happiness. In other words, a great man knows when and in what way he is a little man. A little man does not know he is little and is afraid to know. He hides his pettiness and narrowness behind illusions of strength and greatness, someone else's strength and greatness. He's proud of his great generals but not of himself. He admires an idea he has not had, not one he has had. The less he understands something, the more firmly he believes in it. And the better he understands an idea, the less he believes in it.”

― Wilhelm Reich, Listen, Little Man!

 

“The test of success is not what you do when you are on top. Success is how high you bounce when you hit the bottom.”

― George S. Patton Jr.

 

“It is said we learn more from our failures than our successes.”

― Holly Black, The Wicked King

 

“The only real battle in life is between hanging on and letting go.”

― Shannon L. Alder

 

“The level of success you achieve will be in direct proportion to the depth of your commitment.”

― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

 

“Act the way you'd like to be and soon you'll be the way you'd like to act.”

― Bob Dylan

 

“Love yourself. Forgive yourself. Be true to yourself. How you treat yourself sets the standard for how others will treat you.”

― Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

 

“The roughest roads often lead to the top.”

― Christina Aguilera

 

“Judgment is a negative frequency.”

― Stephen Richards

 

“Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the mext moment”

― Oprah Winfrey

 

“When your back is to the wall and you are facing fear head on, the only way is forward and through it.”

― Stephen Richards, Releasing You from Fear

 

“A quitter never wins-and-a winner never quits.”

― Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

 

“Judging is preventing us from understanding a new truth. Free yourself from the rules of old judgments and create the space for new understanding.”

― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

 

“The merit of all things lies in their difficulty.”

― Alexandre Dumas, The Three Musketeers

 

“If you fuel your journey on the opinions of others, you are going to run out of gas.”

― Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

 

“Success is not obtained overnight. It comes in installments; you get a little bit today, a little bit tomorrow until the whole package is given out. The day you procrastinate, you lose that day's success.”

― Israelmore Ayivor

 

“The victim mindset dilutes the human potential. By not accepting personal responsibility for our circumstances, we greatly reduce our power to change them.”

― Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

 

“To succeed, planning alone is insufficient. One must improvise as well.”

― Isaac Asimov, Foundation

 

“Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can.”

― Douglas Pagels

To Nature by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Poem, Summary, & Analysis)

  To Nature by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Poem, Summary, & Analysis)   To Nature   It may indeed be fantasy when I Essay to draw from all created things Deep, heartfelt, inward joy that closely clings; And trace in leaves and flowers that round me lie Lessons of love and earnest piety. So let it be; and if the wide world rings In mock of this belief, it brings Nor fear, nor grief, nor vain perplexity.
