    “The best shortcut is the long way forward.”

    Seth Godin

      “One does not magically get one’s act together—it is a matter of many individual choices. It’s a matter of getting up at the right time, making your bed, resisting shortcuts, investing in yourself, doing your work. And make no mistake: while the individual action is small, its cumulative impact is not.”

      Ryan Holiday, The Daily Stoic (Page 161)

        “When the soil of the self is exhausted, no beautiful flowers can grow from it.”

        Mira Kirshenbaum, The Gift of a Year (Page 30)

          “There is no limit on better. Talent is distributed unfairly, but there is no limit on how much we can improve what we start with.”

          Breanna Morgan Quote on Growth and How It Leads To Comfort, Hope, and Better Days

            “there’s comfort

            knowing that

            today

            i am the worst

            i will ever

            be

            i will keep

            growing and

            i will be

            kinder and

            stronger and

            braver tomorrow”

            Beyond the Quote (203/365)

            Think about how utterly amazing this idea is: if you decide today, right now, that you are going to commit to growth, self-love, and personal development from this point forward then today is the worst you will ever be. That’s right—only better days from here! The only way you can get worse is if you regress. If you get better and improve, then so will your life. How could this not be the case? Growth is the antithesis of regression. Growth represents improvement, progress, and development. Ultimately, committing to growth is committing to life—a better life.

              “Our progress is paved with mistakes, failures, and defeats, and it’s our resilience that keeps us keeping on.  Every misstep is a teacher, and not all the things and people we lose in life end up being losses.  Our obsession with winning can cost us much more than losing a healthy outlook when life doesn’t go our way.  There’s always a lesson, a nugget of wisdom or a jewel waiting when things look like they won’t be going in our favor; we just have to be willing to pay attention and do some digging if need be.  Once we remind ourselves to find opportunity in any situation, there is no loss, just learning.  Failure isn’t the opposite of success, it’s a path to it.” ~ Humble the Poet, Things No One Else Can Teach Us (Page 268)

                “Nothing lasts forever, and that’s both tragic and comic, depending on how we look at it—so how we look at it, our perspective, is the thing we can, and should, control.  We can give ourselves a facepalm when we look at that old outfit, or we can try it on and dance around the room summoning up the spirits and smiles of yesterday—a beautiful reminder of how far we’ve come.” ~ Humble the Poet, Things No One Else Can Teach Us (Page 15)

                Proverb About Small Steps Versus Giant Leaps and Having An ‘All-Or-Something’ Mindset

                  “It is better to make many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.”

                  Beyond the Quote (Day 3)

                  When it comes to following through with new goals or resolutions, don’t be an all-or-nothing; be an all-or-something.  An all-or-nothing is the type of person who is either all-in or all-out.  Either everything they planned is unfolding perfectly and is being executed flawlessly, or it’s not and they place blame, come up with excuses, and quit.

                    “The ultimate thing that stops most of us from making significant progress in our lives is not somebody else’s limitations, but rather our own limiting perceptions or beliefs.  No matter how successful we are as human beings, no matter how high we reach personally, professionally, spiritually, emotionally, there’s always another level.  And to get there, we have to be honest with ourselves; honest about our unconscious fears.” ~ Tony Robbins, Money: Master the Game
