Seth Godin
“The opportunity of a lifetime is to pick yourself. Quit waiting to get picked; quit waiting for someone to give you permission; quit waiting for someone to say you are officially qualified and pick yourself. It doesn’t mean you have to be an entrepreneur or a freelancer, but it does mean you stand up and say, ‘I have something to say. I know how to do something. I’m doing it. If you want me to do it with you, raise your hand.”
Seth Godin

Steve Maraboli
“Every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.”
Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

Geoffrey James
“I’m utterly convinced that the key to lifelong success is the regular exercise of a single emotional muscle: gratitude.”
Geoffrey James

Cecil Beaton
“Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary.”
Cecil Beaton

“In the Apache language there is no word for ‘guilt.’ Our lives are like diamonds. When we are born we are pure and uncut. Each thing that happens to us in our lives teaches us how to reflect the light in the world; each experience gives us a new cut, a new facet in our diamond. How brilliantly do those diamonds sparkle whose facets are many, to whom life has given many cuts!”
Daniel J. O’Leary quoting Bearwatcher, an Apache medicine man
