Be them; when you are already yourself.
People come into our lives at a specific moment . . . and they leave once that moment has passed. It's not personal, it's not unremarkable. It just is what it is.
Master the morning and you will rule the day.
He had never found that more than five whiskeys and soda were beneficial to law-practice.
Know that no friendships or relationships are ended even after a great argument, time is the key to healing, and everyone will come back at some point or another no matter what.
Life is a Series of Surprise. ~Dr Gorakh Bobde.
Children are not children. They are just younger people. We have the same soul at sixty that we had at forty, and the same soul at twenty-five that we had when we were five. If anything, children are wiser. They know more than we do, and have at least as much to teach us as we have to teach them. How dare we try to fit them into our boxes and make them play by our rules, which are so very, very stupid? How dare we tell them anything when we live in a world so obviously backward? And how ungrateful and irreverent we are to listen so little and watch so casually when angels themselves have moved into the house.
It doesn’t take a lot of strength to hang on; It takes a lot of strength to let go.
And now. This moment. It moves too fast. This is the practice, the way we slow down time. Each breath is a gift, each one an opportunity for reflection, focus, and purpose. What's gone is gone. What's ahead isn't real. I take each breath as it comes. Here. Now. I am here now.
Decide to believe in yourself. Be patient and strong, because there is no doubt you possess the ability to overcome obstacles throughout your life.
Because of nothing but training, some people can effortlessly do something we cannot do even terribly.
The greatest tragedy of life is we overestimate and overvalue the opinions of the world, while underestimate and undervalue of our own. ~Dr Gorakh Bobde
When you do some good work and if it inspires others, then you have just created the ripple effect.
The one who masters his mind achieves ultimate success.
The same person in different contexts could be a hero or a zero... As leaders we have to find the context in which we can best flourish.
All leaders find it easy to take responsibility for success. Few have the courage to take responsibility for setbacks.
Today’s leaders do not need physical courage. But they do need courage to take unpopular decisions and to lead people where they would not have gone by themselves.
Courage can be learned when you make the exceptional become the routine
It is easier to believe in the ideal than it is to achieve it, but it is impossible to achieve the ideal if one does not believe in it.
I may grow tender, walking alone in the blue cool of evening, through some garden fresh with flowers after the benediction of the rain; My poor big devil of a nose inhales April and so I follow with my eyes where some boy, with a girl upon his arm, passes a patch of silver. And...I wish I had a woman too, walking with little stops under the moon, and holding my arm so, and smiling. Then I dream - and I forget… And then I see the shadow of my profile on the wall!
