Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.
The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is.
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.
God will always make a way where there is no way.
Time, of course, topples everyone in its path equally- the way that driver beats his old horse until it dies. But the thrashing we receive is one of frightful gentleness. Few of us even realize that we are being beaten.
It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.
The road goes ever on and on.
It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go.
Don’t say, “If I could, I would.” Say, “If I can, I will.”
You are what you are today because of the choices you made in the past.
On any one day you can massively change the direction of your life.
Direction determines destination.
There are two paths people can take. They can either play now and pay later, or pay now and play later. Regardless of the choice, one thing is certain. Life will demand a payment.
If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it’s not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That’s why it’s your path.
Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived. Follow the path that is no path, follow your bliss.
All you need is the courage to believe in yourself and put one foot in front of the other.
Say not, I have found the path of the soul Say rather, I have met the soul walking upon my path.
He is short-sighted who looks only on the path he treads and the wall on which he leans.
And a step backward, after making a wrong turn, is a step in the right direction.
