Aristotle - We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.

Here are two of my favorite quotes.

The two most important days in your life are the day you were born and the day you find out why.
- Mark Twain

Similar, but less uplifting: They say you die twice. Once when you stop breathing and the second, a bit later on, when somebody mentions your name for the last time.

They did exactly that...

"This too shall pass"

[LS1Z28]

Luck is the residue of design.

The past doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme.

Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right.

There is no black & white, only shades of gray.

Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people.

What doesn't kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a dark sense of humor.

When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful.

[Lpenny]

Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavor.

- Truman Capote

Make grands, spend grands.

Seriously, though, I really like Veni Vedi Vici, so powerful.

"No, "station in life" can be changed from that of a dignified and competent gentleman of culture to that of a panic-stricken, sobbing, self-loathing wreck, maybe a permanent wreck if you have no will, in less than an hour. So what? So after you work a lifetime to get yourself all set up, and then delude Your- self into thinking that YOU have some kind of ownership claim on your station in life, you're riding for a fall. You're asking for disappointment. To avoid that, stop kidding yourself, just do the best you can on a common-sense basis to make your station in life what you want it to be, but never get hooked on it. Make sure in your heart of hearts, in your inner self, that you treat your station in life with indifference. Not with contempt, only with indifference."

The idea is that your goal should be to do the very best within your power and circumstances, and to derive your satisfaction from your own efforts, rather than the end result (accolades, money, reputation, etc). Because your external rewards can be stripped from you at any time, but the rewards that you gain from a having an inner will/spirit that you are proud of can never be stolen. So be strong in will, never compromise your principles, and don't look to the outside world to bring you happiness, look within yourself.

Damn man, thanks for the explanation.

Any suggestions on how to develop a mind to think like this? Mine is just so numb and polluted but I really would like to think about things more deeply, talk about things more deeply.
