Persistence & Resilience

Intelligence is more important than strength, that is why earth is ruled by men and not by animals.

I decided to do the easy task of changing situations and conditions by being a hero, than staying back to do the difficult task of changing people by being just a man.

Never lose hope. Storms make people stronger and never last forever.

People who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will often find ways to discourage yours. When you change for the better, the people around you will be inspired to change also....but only after doing their best to make you stop. Live your truth and don't EVER stop.

Integrity is doing what is right and truthful, and doing as you say you would do.

Live the Life of Your Dreams: Be brave enough to live the life of your dreams according to your vision and purpose instead of the expectations and opinions of others.

Believe in yourself. You are braver than you think, more talented than you know, and capable of more than you imagine.

Failure is a bend in the road, not the end of the road. Learn from failure and keep moving forward.

When you concentrate your energy purposely on the future possibility that you aspire to realize, your energy is passed on to it and makes it attracted to you with a force stronger than the one you directed towards it.

I do not care about happiness simply because I believe that joy is something worth fighting for.

Difficulties and adversities viciously force all their might on us and cause us to fall apart, but they are necessary elements of individual growth and reveal our true potential. We have got to endure and overcome them, and move forward. Never lose hope. Storms make people stronger and never last forever.

Real change is difficult at the beginning. Without the familiar to rely upon, you may not in as much command as you had once been. When things are not going your way, you will start doubting yourself. Stay positive, keep the faith, and keep moving forward – your breakthrough may be just around the corner.

Never allow your mind to wander untamed like a wild animal that exists on the basis of survival of the fittest. Tame your mind with consistent focus on your goals and desires.

Real change is difficult at the beginning, but gorgeous at the end. Change begins the moment you get the courage and step outside your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Life is about accepting the challenges along the way, choosing to keep moving forward, and savoring the journey.

Sex is a powerful intent to create: the creation of pleasure, creation of love, and ultimately the creation of life. It connects and syncs two beings emotionally, physically, and mentally and is one of the strongest expressions of love that exists in this World.

The moment you become friends with your inner Self, you realize that the failures or hindrances that you met earlier were caused more by your disconnected status with your inner Being.

Be brave to stand for what you believe in even if you stand alone.

My past has not defined me, destroyed me, deterred me, or defeated me; it has only strengthened me.

Do not fear failure but rather fear not trying.

Expressing oneself can prove more important than we think.It can bring hope, divide grief, provide courage and uplift our souls.

When it's Zero O'clock, don't be discouraged from what you've failed to fulfill; but remember that 24 hours are ahead to catch up with your goal.

We have collectively and constantly created and are creating the world we exist in, who knows who really authored what. If every success is someone else’s failure, and failure someone else’s success, how then can we not all be part of the manifested.

It is better to find your courage to make changes when you can choose to rather than being forced to. If you do not make change, change will make you.

Growth occurs at the intersection of thoughtful encouragement and action.

The simple truth that many fail to realize is that we are much more than we construct ourselves to be. It is only until life brings, usually in the form of tragedy or unique circumstance, an awakening upon our soul, that we become aware of this truth.

Surround Yourself with People Who Believe in Your Dreams:Surround yourself with people who believe in your dreams, encourage your ideas, support your ambitions, and bring out the best in you.

Concentrate more on your achievements than your failures. Learn to take the failures as opportunities to rectify your errors.

Humans, unlike Jedi, are powerfully afraid of rejection. We do not survive well alone, so humans as a species are especially vulnerable to thoughts that make us afraid the rest of the “tribe” will desert us to die a sad, lonely death.

The realisation that limitations are imaginary will make you strong and overpowering.

Take my hand, hold on tight, and together we will jump. Jump out of the darkness and into the blinding light. I don’t know what struggle we will experience out there but I believe it is better than struggling here in the darkness. Together let’s change our lives. Let us take risks to create a better life. I believe.

If you believe very strongly in something, stand up and fight for it.

A failure is always in the passenger seat in his or her life.

If someone breaks up, it's an opportunity to revamp yourself; this time better and stronger than before.

The biggest wall you have to climb is the one you build in your mind: Never let your mind talk you out of your dreams, trick you into giving up. Never let your mind become the greatest obstacle to success. To get your mind on the right track, the rest will follow.

Never stop dreaming, never stop believing, never give up, never stop trying, and never stop learning.

Strong people have a strong sense of self-worth and self-awareness; they don’t need the approval of others.

Hope may seem frail. But in the face of adversity, hope can be our strongest ally.

When the going gets tough, put one foot in front of the other and just keep going. Don’t give up.

We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future.

When righteous desires back up your motivation, you'll find that your inner gas tank will always have fuel to spare. Brick walls cannot stand in your way, detours cannot get you off track, and road construction will not make you turn around and head back. Your strength will surprise you, and whatever it is that your heart desires will eventually be accomplished.

If you have a strong purpose in life, you don't have to be pushed. Your passion will drive you there.

The strongest people find the courage and caring to help others, even if they are going through their own storm.

That's the thing about rocks--they don't break easily. When I held them, I wanted to be like them-strong and steady, weathered but not broken.

To become the best possible you, you must not only work on improving yourself but on improving others as well. You learn to help yourself when you learn how others need help. We are all just human and are more similar to each other than we might admit. Where others struggle you may struggle too and by seeing their problems from a different perspective you can help find the solutions that you both need.

Do not let arrogance go to your head and despair to your heart; do not let compliments go to your head and criticisms to your heart; do not let success go to your head and failure to your heart.

Courage is feeling fear, not getting rid of fear, and taking action in the face of fear.

Easily mistaken, it is not about a love for adversity, it is about knowing a strength and a faith so great that adversity, in all its adverse manifestations, hardly even exists.

Failures can be called ‘strengtheners’ as they make you determined to reach your goal with the lessons they teach.

Live the Life of Your DreamsWhen you start living the life of your dreams, there will always be obstacles, doubters, mistakes and setbacks along the way. But with hard work, perseverance and self-belief there is no limit to what you can achieve.

How would your life be different if…You walked away from gossip and verbal defamation? Let today be the day…You speak only the good you know of other people and encourage others to do the same.

Do not dilute the truth of your potential. We often convince ourselves that we cannot change, that we cannot overcome the circumstances of our lives. That is simply not true. You have been blessed with immeasurable power to make positive changes in your life. But you can't just wish it, you can't just hope it, you can't just want it... you have to LIVE it, BE it, DO it.

Choosing to do nothing, or even the next best thing, because of apprehension or fear is a coward's failure. A craven dereliction.

With every challenge you face, there is an opportunity hidden that will lead you towards the path of wealth and abundance.

Even though it hurts me so, this broken heart is tough. For now, forgive, forget and for us, that is enough.

A strong animal with a weak mind is feeble in front of his foes.

Could treats so good be bad at all? A hunger oh so strong... 'La Dolce Vita' is my call, delicious can't be wrong.

The gratitude that you feel leads to faith in the abundance and with every resonance that radiates from your mind more strong feelings of faith start to reside in you.

Failing to make it to the list of the best 5 students in class or not being named the team captain should not make anyone feel like they have failed.

As long as we desire to reach new heights, we will find the strength to climb the mountain.

How would your life be different if…You stopped allowing other people to dilute or poison your day with their words or opinions? Let today be the day…You stand strong in the truth of your beauty and journey through your day without attachment to the validation of others

Turn your obstacles into opportunities and your problems into possibilities.

If God wants to move me, then I go! Yes, I am scared. Yes, I doubt. Yes, I am afraid things will crumble around me. Yes, I know this will be tough and this stress will sometimes seem unbearable. Yes, I know life will never be the same. But God wants to use ME! I am not saying no. I have my call. I must go!

Challenge and adversity are meant to help you know who you are. Storms hit your weakness, but unlock your true strength.

It takes guts and humility to admit mistakes. Admitting we're wrong is courage, not weakness.

Don't be afraid of challenges. Let them take you somewhere new.

Your Monday morning thoughts set the tone for your whole week. See yourself getting stronger, and living a fulfilling, happier & healthier life.

Keep hoping. Be patient and diligent. Never give up. Hold on to your faith. God helps us when we show Him that we are willing to help ourselves.

Be proud. You are here trying to improve yourself, to make a better life. Be proud that you have reached out into the world to find ways to be your best self. Let your pride sink into you. Let your pride empower you, encourage you, and, ultimately, improve your life.
