Quote by -Bruce Lee
Please observe the adaptability of water. If you squeeze it fast, the water will flow out quickly. If you squeeze it slowly, it will come out slowly.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Man is constantly growing, and when he is bound by a set pattern of ideas, or “way” of doing things, that’s when he stops growing.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
I’m not a smoker because I don’t think putting smoke into your body is quite the thing to do. As for alcohol, I think it tastes awful. Don’t know why anyone should want to drink the stuff.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Thoughts are things, in the sense that thought can be translated into its physical equivalent.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Sharpen the psychic power of seeing in order to act immediately in accordance with what it sees.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Drop and dissolve inner blockage. A conditioned mind is never a free mind. Wipe away and dissolve all its experience and be “born afresh”.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Right now I can project my thoughts into the future. I can see ahead of me. I dream (remember that practical dreamers never quit). I may now own nothing but a little place down in a basement, but once my imagination has got up a full head of stream, I can see painted on a canvas on my mind a picture of a fine, big fix or six story Gung Fun Institute with branches all over the States…
Quote by -Bruce Lee
I am not easily discouraged, readily visualize myself as overcoming obstacles, winning out over set backs, achieving “impossible” objectives.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
I will play with my children and joke with my children, but business is business. When the subject is a serious one, you don’t go around trying to keep from hurting their feelings. You say what must be said and set the rules which must be set without worrying about whether they like it or not.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The way to bring back the dream is to relive the dream as if it were happening now.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Remember my friend to enjoy your planning as well as your accomplishment, for life is too short for negative energy.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
What I detest most are dishonest people who talk more than they are capable of doing.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Negativeness very often unknowingly creeps up upon us. It helps occasionally to stop all thoughts (the chattering of worries, anticipations, and so forth, in your head) and then once more refreshingly march bravely on.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Most people can talk without listening. Very few can listen without talking. It is very rare that people can talk and listen.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Realizing that my emotions are both positive and negative, I will form daily habits which will encourage the development of the positive emotions and aid me in converting the negative emotions into some form of useful action.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The important thing is that I am personally satisfied with my work. If it is a piece of junk, I will only regret it.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
There is fear and insecurity in pride, for when one aims at being highly esteemed, and having achieved such status, he is automatically involved in the fear of losing one’s status.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Then protection of his status appears to be his most important need, and this creates anxiety.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
If you think a thing is impossible, you’ll make it impossible. Pessimism blunts the tools you need to succeed.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Who wants to live with delusion and prejudice, being unjust, undisciplined, mean and ungrateful? ‘No one.’ No bad person, then, lives the way he wants, and no bad man is free.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
He who does wrong does wrong against himself. He who acts unjustly acts unjustly to himself, because he makes himself bad.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Show me someone untroubled with disturbing thoughts about illness, danger, death, exile or loss of reputation. By all the gods, I want to see a Stoic!
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
If you like doing something, do it regularly; if you don’t like doing something, make a habit of doing something different. The same goes for moral inclinations. When you get angry, you should know that you aren’t guilty of an isolated lapse, you’ve encouraged a trend and thrown fuel on the fire.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
If you don’t want to be cantankerous, don’t feed your temper, or multiply incidents of anger. Suppress the first impulse to be angry, then begin to count the days on which you don’t get mad.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Provoked by the sight of a handsome man or a beautiful woman, you will discover within you the contrary power of self-restraint. Faced with pain, you will discover the power of endurance. If you are insulted, you will discover patience. In time, you will grow to be confident that there is not a single impression that you will not have the moral means to tolerate.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
It is our own opinions that disturb us. Take away these opinions then, and resolve to dismiss your judgment about an act as if it were something grievous, and your anger is gone.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
In a little while you will have forgotten everything; in a little while everything will have forgotten you.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
But if you accept the obstacle and work with what you’re given, an alternative will present itself – another piece of what you’re trying to assemble. Action by action.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: “I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?”
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Such as are your habitual thoughts, such also will be the character of your mind.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Very little is needed for everything to be upset and ruined, only a slight lapse in reason.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
You always own the option of having no opinion. There is never any need to get worked up or to trouble your soul about things you can’t control. These things are not asking to be judged by you. Leave them alone.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Yes, you can – if you do everything as if it were the last thing you were doing in life, and stop being aimless, stop letting your emotions override what your mind tells you, stop being hypocritical, self-centered, irritable.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Remember to act always as if you were at a symposium. When the food or drink comes around, reach out and take some politely; if it passes you by don’t try pulling it back. And if it has not reached you yet, don’t let your desire run ahead of you, be patient until your turn comes.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
Labor willingly and diligently, undistracted and aware of the common interest.
Quote by -Marcus Aurelius
