My top ten Quotes- Something a little different



To go with my last post of my years reflection I have found that I have been collecting quotes or sayings something that has caught my eye something that I have read and went hmmm I like what that is saying, it didn’t have to have a meaning to me at the time but I have found that over the past year or so that I have had the chance to look at those and noticed that at some point in time that they did make sense they did help me, or motivated me when I needed that extra push, and I was thinking that here I am ready to make yet another change in my life and I was looking at these quotes and though what the hell I should share these with other people, if they have had the chance to help me through my journey maybe they will help some one else with theirs. So all though this has nothing to  do with me and my piss poor stress eating habits which, don’t worry I will talk about that I’m sure with in the next week or so, it does how ever have to do with my all around journey. Now I’m sure some of them I have said before and others maybe not so much but either way I find them to be crazy and helpful when I least expect it. So here it is I though I would give you my top 10 something different, and change if you will form the normal, so here we go:

10. “A genuine change must first come from within the individual, only then can he or she attempt to make a significant contribution to humanity.” Dalai Lama

9. “Compassion and peace of mind bring a sense of confidence that reduce stress and anxiety.” Dalai Lama

8. “You will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the things you did. Explore. Dream. Discover."- Jared Leto

7. “Once you have a genuine sense of concern for others, there’s no room for cheating, bullying or exploitation.”- Dalai Lama

6. “Fight for what you believe in. No. Matter. What.”- Jared Leto

5. “Improvement requires continuous effort” -  Dalai Lama

4. “We need to understand how destructive emotions affect us and constructive emotions can help us, so that we can maintain our peace of mind”- Dalai Lama

3. “The meaning of life is to apply meaning to your life”- Robert Greenwood

2. “Sometimes you just show up. A bit of failure can be the best gift in the world”- Jared Leto

1. “If you're going through hell, keep going”. - Winston Churchill

So there you go there are my top ten quotes that I keep with me and can look back at when ever I need that little push to keep going, because I don’t care who you are any time you are changing anything there will always be obstacles that will need to be over come, walls to climb over hurdles to jump over and paths to chose from. Some times all it takes is a couple words to give you the inner strength you need. So with that I will leave you with two of my own sayings that I look at every day.
“It is better to have tired and failed then to have failed because you never tried” N. McKnight
“A humble beginning makes exceptional endings” N. McKnight

Mcknight out.
