Do not pray for an easy life,
pray for the strength
to endure a difficult one.
Absorb what is useful,
Discard what is not,
Add what is uniquely your own.
A teacher is never a giver of truth;
he is a guide, a pointer to the truth
that each student must find for himself.
The moment is freedom
I couldn't live by a rigid schedule.
I try to live freely from moment to moment,
letting things happen and adjusting to them!
Defeat is a state of mind;
no one is ever defeated
until defeat has been accepted as a reality.
Empty your mind, be formless.
Shapeless, like water.
If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle.
You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Now, water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend.
Life itself is your teacher,
and you are in a state of constant learning
if you always put limits on what you can do,
physical or anything else,
it’ll spread over into the rest of your life.
It’ll spread into your work, into your morality,
into your entire being. There are no limits.
There are plateaus, but you must not stay there,
you must go beyond them.
If it kills you, it kills you.
A man must constantly exceed his level.
Always be yourself, express yourself,
have faith in yourself,
do not go out and look for
a successful personality and duplicate it.
Sorrows are our best educator.
A man can see further through a tear than a telescope.
I fear not the man who has practiced 10000 kicks once,
but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10000 times.
Showing off is the fools idea of glory
Mistakes are always forgivable,
if one has the courage to admit them.
Knowledge will give you power,
but character respect.
Strength does not come from physical capacity.
It comes from an indominate will.
Choose the positive. You have choice,
you are master of your attitude,
choose the positive, the constructive.
Optimism is a faith that leads to success.
Simplicity is the key to brilliance.
Be happy, but never satisfied.
A goal is not always meant to be reached,
it often serves simply as something to aim at.
If you love life,
don't waste time,
for time is what life is made up of.
I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations
and you're not in this world to live up to mine.
To understand your fear is the beginning of really seeing.
Running water never grows stale.
So you just have to keep on flowing.
Humility forms the basis of honor,
just as the low ground forms
the foundation of a high elevation.
The successful warrior is the average man,
with laser focus.
Absorb what is useful,
discard what is not,
add what is uniquely your own.
Don't get set into one form,
adapt it and build your own,
and let it grow, be like water.
Notice that the stiffest tree
is most easily cracked,
while the bamboo or willow survives
by bending with the wind.
Without frustration you will not discover that
you might be able to do something on your own.
We grow through conflict.
The possession of anything
begins in the mind.
Remember no man is really defeated
unless he is discouraged.
A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than
a fool can learn from a wise answer.
To me defeat in anything is merely temporary.
Defeat simply tells me that
something is wrong in my doing;
it is a path leading to success and truth.
The measure of the moral worth of a man is his happiness.
The better the man, the more happiness.
Happiness is the synonym of well-being.
Fear comes from uncertainty,
we can eliminate the fear
when we know ourselves better.
Notice that the stiffest tree

The less effort you put in,
the more powerful you will be.
Always be yourself, express yourself,
have faith in yourself,
do not go out and look for
a successful personality and duplicate it.
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing,
you'll never get it done.
What you habitually think largely determines
what you will ultimately become.
There is no such thing as defeat,
until you admit so yourself,
but not until then.
Empty your cup
so that it may be filled
Become devoid to gain totality.
Choose the positive. You have a choice.
You are the master of your attitude.
Choose the positive, the constructive.
Optimism is a faith that leads to success.
Love is like a friendship caught on fire.
In the beginning a flame, very pretty,
often hot and fierce,
but still only light and flickering.
As love grows older,
our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals,
deep-burning and unquenchable
The key to immortality
is first living a life worth remembering.
If I tell you I'm good,
probably you will say I'm boasting.
But if I tell you I'm not good,
you'll know I'm lying.
The doubters said,
"Man can not fly,"
The doers said,
"Maybe, but we'll try,"
And finally soared
In the morning glow
While non-believers
Watched from below.
Cease negative mental chattering. —
If you think a thing is impossible,
you'll make it impossible.
Pessimism blunts the tools you need to succeed.
Obey the principles without
being bound by them.
Ever since I was a child
I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth.
To me, the function and duty of a quality human being
is the sincere and honest development of one's potential.
Don't fear failure. —
Not failure, but low aim,
is the crime.
In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.
Emotion can be the enemy,
if you give into your emotion,
you lose yourself.
You must be at one with your emotions,
because the body always follows the mind.
For it is easy to criticize and break down the spirit of others,
but to know yourself takes a lifetime.
Fear comes from uncertainty;
we can eliminate the fear within us
when we know ourselves better.
Freedom discovers you
the moment you lose concern over
what impression you are making or about to make.
If you don't want to slip up tomorrow,
speak the truth today.
Courage is not the absence of fear,
but rather the assessment that
something else is more important than fear.
Concentration is the ROOT of
all the higher abilities in man.
The great mistake is to anticipate the outcome
of the engagement;
you ought not to be thinking of
whether it ends in victory or defeat.
Let nature take its course,
and your tools will strike at the right moment.
A quick temper will make
a fool of you soon enough.
Knowing is not enough, we must apply.
Willing is not enough, we must do.
Learning is never cumulative, .
it is a movement of knowing
which has no beginning and no end.
As you think, so shall you become.
