Mel Robbins, The 5 Second Rule: Transform Your Life, Work, and Confidence with
Everyday Courage
“The
problem for a lot of people is that they don't really know what they want. They
have vague desire: to 'do something creative' or to earn more money or 'to be
free', but they can't really pin down what it is precisely that they want.
So
they drift from one thing to another, enjoying some moments and hating others,
but never really finding fulfillment or success. (..)
This
is why it's hard to lead a successful life (whatever that means to you) when
you don't know what you want.”

Toba Beta, Betelgeuse Incident: Insiden Bait Al-Jauza
“Your
mind can be your enemy or friend. If you always follow your heart, your mind will
feel neglected. If you follow only your mind, your heart will never forgive
you. Never ignore your conscience, yet always be conscious of reason. Make your
heart and mind friends and you will have peace of mind throughout life's
seasons.”

steven redhead, The Solution
“The
people who stand before kings may look like they did it all by themselves. But
in fact they are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and
extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies that allow them to learn and
work hard and make sense of the world in ways others cannot. It makes a
difference where and when we grew up. The culture we belong to and the legacies
passed down by our forebears shape the patterns of our achievements in ways we
cannot begin to imagine. It's not enough to ask what successful people are
like, in other words. It is only by asking where they are from that we can
unravel the logic behind who succeeds and who doesn't.”

average person with average talent, ambition and education can outstrip the
most brilliant genius in our society, if that person has clear, focused goals.”

“Failure
is always an option”
―
Adam Savage
“At
any given point you can release your greatest self. Don’t let anyone hold you
back. Don’t let anyone dilute you. Don’t be peer pressured into being less than
you are. People willing to dilute themselves for the sake of others is one of
the great tragedies of our time. Stop letting others define and set the pace
for your life. Get out there and be your best. Do your best. Live your best.
Make every day count and you’ll see how exponentially more exciting, thrilling,
successful, happy and full your life will be.”

Brian Tracy
“My
life changed the day I moved beyond just wishing for things and I started
earning them. That is the day I learned that we don't get what we wish for, we
get what we work for.”

Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
“Success
and failure, ultimately, have little to do with living the gospel. Jesus just
stood with the outcasts until they were welcomed or until he was crucified —
whichever came first.”
