life

There are two kinds of people in this world. First, there are those who follow life’s lead and spend their time and energy defending against whatever life might throw at them, then living off the leftovers of the battle. Then there are those who courageously attack life by taking advantage of every opening and opportunity that may present itself, thereby setting the pace of life and living off the spoils of victory

Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life, I tell them that absolutely the most important thing was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to become.
