Experience is what you got when you didn’t get what you wanted.

Everybody is jealous of what you’ve got. Nobody is jealous of how you got it.

Look Back and Enjoy the view.

“Can you tell your life story in six words?” Mine: Cursed with stroke, blessed with family.

If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.

Everyone you will ever meet

You don’t become the person you want to be by just thinking about it. You do it, by living it.

When something is right for you it will give you energy. That’s how you know.

The less you fully know me, the less you can hurt me.

Take command of who you are becoming. If you don’t like who you are today, your focus must be on who you intend to be tomorrow.

To be interesting, be interested.

The more isolated you become from the people in your life, the more feeds compassion.

Content is the new mainstream drug of our times.

Brace yourself for the worse to come. One day, it surely will.

Fast for a few days, or sleep on the bare hard ground.

Don’t wait for fate to strike, push yourself to do something outside of your comfort zone once in a while.
