We should every night call ourselves to an account: What infirmity have I mastered today? What passions opposed? What temptation resisted? What virtue acquired?

( Seneca ) ( 5 BC - 65 AD )




We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment." Jim Rohn




"I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies,
for the hardest victory is over self."

Aristotle

Always behave like a duck - keep calm and unruffled on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath.

Jacob Braude

I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

Bruce Lee


“As you think, so shall you become.”


“If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done.”

“The possession of anything begins in the mind”

“If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.”

“Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.”

“Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.

"To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person."

“Let the spirit out - Discard all thoughts of reward, all hopes of praise and fears of blame, all awareness of one's bodily self. And, finally closing the avenues of sense perception, let the spirit out, as it will.”
