Quotes by Alex Lickerman  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We may rarely get feedback from the people around us about how meaningfully we’ve influenced their lives for the better, and even less often how they then may have gone on, as a direct result of our influence, to influence the lives of still others. But there’s little doubt this effect is real and frequently significant. The small kind word we leave with a stranger who we’ll never see again may not just spread out like ripples on a pond but may strike with the force of a tidal wave. We just never know. ”
Alex Lickerman, The Undefeated Mind: On the Science of Constructing an Indestructible Self

“But our determination is what creates the path—our determination to make use of adversity rather than escape it.”
Alex Lickerman, The Undefeated Mind: On the Science of Constructing an Indestructible Self

“If our lives are so busy, so filled with errands and responsibilities and passions that we feel we have no emotional capacity or time to take compassionate action when confronted with the opportunity to do so, we need to consider reordering our life priorities.”
Alex Lickerman, The Undefeated Mind: On the Science of Constructing an Indestructible Self
