When you’re trying to learn who you are
You don’t learn who you are by finding something out there. You learn who you are by finding yourself.
When success seems illusive
When you chase the sun it’s always just out of reach. Success can feel the same way, yet all you have to do is claim it.
What does it take to find freedom in your life
Freedom happens the moment you realize life is happening for you and not to you.
The difference between “I” and “we”
Saying “I” rather than “we” when talking about problems demonstrates your responsibility for what has happened, rather than hiding behind the team reference.
Do you plan for the worst-case scenario?
Rather than spending energy planning the worst-case scenario, spend your energy living the life you want.
Don’t regret the decisions you make
Never regret the decisions you make. Learn from the decision and let it go.
When you worry about failing
The next time you catch yourself thinking, “What if I fail at this?” Turn it around by asking yourself, “What if I’m wildly successful?”
Don’t worry about things which may never happen
The forecast called for rain and I went hiking in a mountain meadow with a friend. It never rained. Why get worried about something that hasn’t happened yet? Go enjoy your day!
Customer experience or profits
Why is it small airlines provide free alcoholic drinks while big airlines nickel and dime you to death? One focuses on the customer experience, while the other on their profits. Choose wisely.
What you’ll find by climbing mountains?
You can never be certain what you’ll find by climbing a mountain, except that you’ll learn something about yourself.
