Nuggets of Wisdom
Anything is possible.
Give yourself permission to dream.Never give up.
Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.Most of what we learn we learn indirectly. Best way to get someone to learn something is to have them think they are learning something else.
The brick walls are there for a reason. Not to keep us out but to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. The brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough.Find the best in people. Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you. When you are pissed off with someone and you are angry at them, you just haven’t given them enough time.
Be careful what you wish for.Help others to enable their dreams. It can be even more rewarding than you living yours.
Have fun. Are you a Tigger or an Eeyore?Never lose the child-like wonder.
When it comes to men that are romantically interested in you, just ignore everything they say and only pay attention to what they do.How do you get people to help you? Tell the truth, Be earnest, Apologize when you screw up and focus on others not yourself.
Don’t bail; the best gold is at the bottom of bails of crap.When people give your feedback, cherish it and use it.
Show gratitude.Work hard.
Be prepared; “luck” is where preparation meets opportunity.
