We all need to humble ourselves from time to time and expose ourselves to new perspectives and ideas, even those of the non-experts, or else our growth potential gets weighed down with the ignorance of ego and habit.
Sometimes you just need to know when a fight is best saved for another day when the odds are more in your favour.
The more a mind thinks upon something, the deeper it will take root and affect all subsequent and related thought.
We stay the same as we’ve always been, keeping to the path we’ve walked our whole lives. Paths that carry so much importance and perceived stability that we are utterly convinced it is the only one to walk – that anyone not walking it with us is being misled.
The only way we succeed as a group is not simply following directions, but in keeping each other accountable for our actions.
Most physical battles begin once mental ones have been lost, anyway. Conquer the mind, conquer the body.
What you withhold in this life will be withheld from you in the next.
If you refuse to accept what is, and choose to see what could be, then you set a course for yourself that makes others take notice of you, respect you, revere you. It is then that they become objects of your destiny instead of you playing a support role in theirs.

Sometimes we exist long enough to lead the next generation; other times, only to plant a seed and let its resonations of our time here on Earth ripple into new waves.
Life is what you make it and legacy is what you leave it. Stop trying to be perfect, stop waiting for perfection to find you, and start making your environment a product of you instead of the other way around.
We’re all blurry-eyed wanderers of time, and the unfortunance of it all is that we’d probably all go on to do great things if only we searched for what corrected and focused our vision instead of relying on our past – life’s grand kaleidoscope – to help us find our way forward.
Where there is desire, the means to fulfill it are endless.
Never judge a woman by her age.
The questions we don’t ask become the puzzles we don’t solve.
Your life is not a countdown to your death, but a stepping stone for the lives that will live after you. Squander today, and you will find yourself useless tomorrow.
A man shouldn’t bite the hand that feeds him, even if another holds out a golden spoon to him as reward after his betrayal.
People are more willing to change based on their perceived insecurities than by an attack on their beliefs.
