Be a sponge, embrace challenges.

Warm your soul with positive thoughts. Otherwise you're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul.

Don’t judge yourself by your past, you don’t live there anymore. Just because you’re not where you want to be today, doesn’t mean you won’t be there someday. You can turn it all around in the blink of an eye, by making a simple choice to stand back up – to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again. No one can ride you, unless your back is bent. Be a critic, but only criticize yourself in areas that you know you need to grow.

Write grievance in sand, benefits in sandstone. Writing is a challenge, not a chore

Confident people take a viewpoint not because they ponder they are constantly dead-on but since they are not scared to be mistaken. They listen ten times more than they speak; the only way to absorb more is to listen more. They duck the spotlight so it sparkles on others; they don’t need the validation of others, because genuine validation comes from within. Truly confident people admit their mistakes; they dine out on their screw-ups.

Everyone is volunteer! Ask the breeze, the trees, the honey bees.
