There's no shame in being wrong, only refusing to learn. Phrases to get comfortable saying:

Thanks for correcting me, I didn't realise that before. 

I hadn't though of it like that, I understand now. 

I was wrong about that, and I've changed my mind.

I should do some more research before I argue this point.

One of the criticisms I've faced over the years is that I'm not aggressive enough or assertive enough, or maybe somehow, because I'm empathetic, it means I'm weak. I totally rebel against that. I refuse to believe that you cannot be both compassionate and strong.

Someone said, "I'd rather adjust to your absence than be frustrated by your presence." I felt that.

Become friends with people who aren't your age. Hang out with people whose first language isn't the same as yours. Get to know someone who doesn't come from your social class. This is how you see the world. This is how you grow.

Success is when you can spend 90 percent of your time doing the things you want to do and only 10 percent doing things you have to do. Most people's lives are just the opposite.

Listen. There will always be people who will try to bring you down and that's because they're already below you. So you gotta keep killing it queen. And in a world full of bitches... be a bad one.

Stop being patient and start asking yourself, "how do I accomplish my 10 year plan in 6 months?" You'll probably fail but you'll be a lot further than the person who simply accepted it was going to take 10 years!

Keep Ya Head Up by Tupac Shakur

My sisters always said which might of come from my father at one point... it's that 'no' is a full sentence... You can just say no and I just really like that in all aspects of life.

Keep Ya Head Up by Tupac Shakur

Keep Ya Head Up by Tupac Shakur

And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don't we'll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one

Naval Ravikant

Keep Ya Head Up by Tupac Shakur

@digoxin-purpurea via Tumblr

You know every man has two lives and the second starts when he realises he has only just one. It's like a happy person wants wants ten thousand things, a sick person just wants one thing. It's your your unlimited desires that are clouding your peace, your happiness. Have desires just don't focus on more than one desire at a time. The universe is rigged in such a way that if you want one thing and focus on that, you will get it. But everything else, you gotta let go.

From Unknown Sources

Your million dollar stock portfolio starts with buying 1 stock. Your strong body starts with 1 push up. Your empire starts by laying 1 brick. Success isn't build overnight with one huge win, it's an accumulation of smaller wins which compound over time. Consistency is key. 


Work hard and be the men you wanted to marry.


Successful people are not gifted; they just work hard, then succeed on purpose.


Get a blood pressure test when over 40.


Do not flaunt online. Flaunt where there are no cameras.

Any picture is taken of you. If a picture is taken of you, somebody has it and somebody will use it against you. Don't. Just don't... If you're watching this right now, if anybody, anybody is watching this, don't post your feelings. Don't do it to yourself.

Did you really have a bad day or did you have 10-20min where you let your thoughts run undisciplined which led you to a bad vibe that you let carry you away? Cmon, bro.. you run this shit. Pay attention.

Never destroy anyone in public when you can accomplish the same result in private.

You will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing things with logic. True power is restraint. If words control you that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass.

No one cares what you think. And neither should you.

From Anonymous People

If you ever get a flat tire, take a picture of it on your phone so for future reference you can use it as a valid excuse.


Always check your cell signal when looking for a new place to live.


Dream so big that you get uncomfortable telling small minded people.


When in an argument, act as if you're being recorded. This will prevent you from saying stupid dumb shit.


If you're too embarrassed to buy something, get a birthday card with it.


From an 80 year old man:

1. Have a firm handshake

2. Look people in the eye

3. If in a fight, hit first and hit hard

4. Always accept an outstretched hand

5. Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90% of all your happiness or misery.

6. Lend only those books you never care to see again

7. Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have

8. When playing games with children, let them win

9. Don't allow the phone to interrupt important moments. It's there for our convenience, not the caller's

10. Be a good loser and be a good winner

11. When someone hugs you, let them be the first to let go

12. Be modest. A lot was accomplished before you were born.

13. Sign cards with 'Someone who thinks you're terrific'


Easy to spot a yellow car when you are always thinking of a yellow car. Easy to spell opportunity when you are always thinking of opportunity. Easy to spot reasons to be mad when you are always thinking of being mad. You become what you constantly think about. Watch yourself.


Put no one else above you.


When you can't control what's happening, challenge yourself to control the way you respond to what's happening. That's where the power is.


The more focus you put in your weakness, it could either degrade you unhealthily or use it to your advantage.


Read. Doesn't matter if you don't understand it just read. By the end of it, you will understand somewhat of it and then it builds. Make it habit.


Do you want it? Or do you like the idea of it? For example, I like the idea of a mohawk but I will never get it. Because I don't like it enough to want it.
I just had that "Yeah fuck you guys I'm getting to the top" attitude the whole time and that's what got me here.

In mystical traditions, it is one's own readiness that makes experiences exoteric or esoteric. The secret isn't that you're not being told. The secret is that you're not able to hear.
