Don't let others have input into your value system - my mom
Sometimes you have to shut your mouth and keep going because fools will continue talking - my grandmother You better hint and hope. You can hint to a man to do something, then hope they do it. Otherwise he is set in his ways. - my stylist at home said this because another customer said she was trying to "change" her man. I fell out my seat laughing. I get a lot of statement from my family because they have enjoyed, lived, and struggled through life. |

Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us it's in everyone.

I have a bunch....
Act in haste, repent at leisure.
Never compromise yourself personally to become who you want to be professionally. Never become upset by people or words. They are powerless. Your reaction is their only power! The key to willpower is WANTpower. Those who want something badly enough will usually find the willpower to achieve it. It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. Have no friends not equal to yourself.- Confucius Never put off for tomorrow that which you can do today. * Treat others like you'd want to be treated. * Scratch a liar, find a thief. * If you're an eagle, act as eagles do. Don't waste your time clucking around with the chickens. Spread your wings and fly!!! * = New ones I added |
