AS KIDS WE THINK THAT WE know nothing and that adults have all the answers. As teenagers we think that we know everything and that everyone else knows nothing. As adults we realise that no one knows anything.

WITH EVERY RISING OF THE SUN, THINK OF YOUR LIFE AS JUST BEGUN
~~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox

WE LEARN WHO WE ARE IN practice, not in theory. We are not as good as we think we are at just intuiting our abilities or by simple introspection. Our insight into ourselves is constrained by the roster of our previous experiences. We actually have to do stuff, and then reflect on it.
~~ David Epstein

TAKE LIFE IN STRIDE. ENJOY THE sunshine today. It may well rain tomorrow, but that doesn’t mean you have to get wet in advance. For the future is out of our control. It is uncertain, and also vast. We have to be aware of that, yes, but we don’t need to suffer in advance.
~~ The Daily Stoic

KEEP SOME ROOM IN YOUR HEART FOR THE UNIMAGINABLE. ~~ Mary Oliver

WHAT IF THE MEASUREMENT of success is not money or possessions? But more the amount of happiness and the quality of people we choose to surround ourselves with.

FOR SOME OF US, IT’S MORE frightening to do something truly new than it is to retry something that failed.
~~ Seth Godin
