Whether you think you can, or if you think you can't, in both cases you are right.
Henry Ford
Sometimes the meaning is there, but it doesn't reach you. Meaning and communicating are not the same. Everything means, but not everything communicates.
Maximo Gavete (Honos Newsletter)
If it rains I don't fight the rain. I focus on getting an umbrella.
Yesid Barrera (TedxUFM)
You have to know how to surrender. You have to understand the act of surrender as part of the game.
You don't always win, but it is important to understand this in order to continue playing and having more opportunities.
In the end it all comes down to knowing how to accept that there are things that are not going to work out. You have to be aware of your limitations, circumstances, etc... to try to make the best decision. (You have to be efficient, not effective, as I already say in my 32 Habits ranking…)
The chojin (In case the Voices Return)
I really like to write because many times when re-reading reflections of our past self we can say "Damn, what a caress I left here in advance, for when I forgot...».
Angel Martin (In case the Voices Return)
Maturity does not go with age. Maturity is related to each person's problems and bruises, and especially in relation to each person's ability to analyze and learn from those problems and bruises.
The chojin (In case the Voices Return)
I'm like everyone: I feel unique.
Sophos (Bars II)
Tyranny is only forgiven as long as authority makes sense.

In golf, hitting the ball a millimeter or two further to the right means that for the entire distance it travels during its flight, the final trajectory is greatly affected.
Exactly the same thing happens in life. To change a lot you just have to start doing two or three new and positive things for yourself, but maintain them for a long time.
Xesco Espar
The path is not only made by walking. There is also a way to go when doing.
Mauricio Wiesenthal
The real world is much more venevolent than the mental world.
Mario Alonso Puig
What is the point of life going on, when one is the widower mourning a living woman?
Because if she is not the love of my life (and I know I didn't have the wrong love) I must have had the wrong life.
Just as there are parts of the body that one cannot scratch, there are places in the soul that only someone else can caress.
Rafael Lechowski (Quarcissus: the art of unloving)
Stephen Covey
The human being is not a participle, but a gerund.
We are not born made. We are doing it. Starting from zero, everyone can reach one hundred.
José Ortega y Gasset
You can't wait for things to go well to be well. Living consists of just the opposite.
Bad things are always going to happen to all of us. To a lesser or greater extent.
You have to face things with the best possible attitude to try to make things go as well as possible.
Victor Küppers
It's not that stupidity gives us happiness. The thing is that those who are happy do not stop to think why they are so.
Ozelot (Lure)
The wiser the fewer certainties.

It's funny, but you never start an activity for the same reasons you stay.
Juan Sklar (Spanish Ted)
Today the thing I take most seriously in this life is not taking life too seriously.
nach (Urbanology)
An intelligent person recovers quickly from failure. A mediocre person never recovers from success.
Seneca
Political correctness is something very serious... In the West we have created a religion of virtues that we believe can be exported, and we want to implement it in other cultures.
Changing the behavior of other cultures is something that has to happen from within. You can't stretch a plant to make it grow faster, because you pull it out.
Arturo Pérez Reverte (in El Hormiguero)
Who is God, if God only lives in the mind of the conscious subject who conceives him?
Admit your omnipotence; you have created your belief […] I am greater than God. How do you want it not to be, if the creator is by definition superior to his idea?
The world will become yours the day you understand that you are the gods of the gods you create.
Lonely (Interview)
For those who only know the hammer, any problem is a nail.
Fernando Alonso Martín (Born to Learn)
People think that writing books is my passion in life, but that's not the case. Writing books helps me fulfill my purpose in life, but it is not my passion. People easily confuse those two things.
Robert Kiyosaki (Investor and writer)
How inopportune that so many zeros on the left continue to believe they are number one.

Even those who most believe in destiny look before crossing the street.
Stephen Hawking
Of my students, I contrast much sooner those who get a 7 or an 8 by studying for a couple of days, than those who get a 10 by studying for a whole month. Because those who get a 10 would also be able to get a 7 by studying for a couple of days, and instead they prefer to invest much more time in perfecting their exam to the limit.
Being such a perfectionist is not really a positive thing. What I really value is that people know how to use their resources correctly to optimize the result.
Fernando Alonso Martin (Keys to Meaningful Learning)
Everyone deserves it; only one earns it.

They will sound your thoughts deductive, the thought critical, the thought inductive, analytical either creative, etc…
In our society, we have been educated mainly to analyze reality by considering its parts; to solve complex problems by breaking them down and looking only at their pieces as isolated entities, getting used to always searching the straight line between cause and effect.
This is what makes us, in some way, tend to simplify the world around us. When in reality the entire world is a complex system, and a complex system is much more than the sum of its parts. Only by looking at it as a whole can we really understand it.. This is the \ It \ him systematic thinking.
Elena Madrigal (Newsletter – Systems to Design your Life)
There was a moment in history when human beings, formed by the same matter that forms stars, water, rocks... looked at themselves and questioned their own existence. […] We are the only vehicle through which the universe could become aware of itself.
Ozelot (Why something exists instead of nothing)
Original author: Alan Watts
Excellence is not an act, it is a habit.
Will Durant (about Aristotle)
Don't try to be anyone's hero; That will make you look selfish. People look for mentors, not new heroes, because no one wants to stop being the hero of their own life.
To establish healthy relationships you have to be Yoda, not Luke Skywalker.
Donald Miller (Story-brand)
Tidy up your room and then fix the world.
MIGALA (How to live alone with yourself)
Two twin brothers were raised by an alcoholic and drug addict father. It didn't take long for one of them to try alcohol and drugs, and he fell into a bad life as soon as he grew up. He lived working to pay for all his vices. The other brother did not take long to look for resources to undertake and maintain a healthy mind. He created a successful company and lived surrounded by a good environment.
Years later a man asked both brothers the same question: How did you end up where you are now?
The two brothers responded exactly the same: "It was my only alternative to having a father like the one I had."

I would never die for my beliefs because I could be wrong.
Bertrand Russell
Yesterday is gone; tomorrow is yet to come; We only have today, that's why it is called present.
@Pollete (in Discord)
To change the way of thinking of a person who (you think) is wrong, it is useless to throw data that proves that you are right. The most effective way to open someone's eyes is by trying to understand their way of thinking and little by little making them see small inconsistencies in their premise.
In the end, the steps required to prove that an idea is false are very different from the steps required to convince someone that their belief is wrong.
Adam H. Grant (Book: Think Again)
Charles vi Britannia
I think there are many people for whom entertainment consists of imagining living someone else's life.. That's why there are so many people gossiping on TV, putting shit on the internet or even defending to the death celebrities with whom they feel a little identified.
Tiparraco
If when you compete in something you are wanting to win, or worrying about losing, all you will do is distract yourself from what is happening in the present.
In the same way that a glass is only useful when it is empty, those who truly know how to compete do not worry about the result: they are empty of emotions.

Ozelot
Shouldn't you separate your feelings from your decisions? Sometimes it is necessary to make sacrifices to achieve your goals.
Diethard Ried
The opposite of boredom is not pleasure, but the emotion itself. Bored people will gladly seek out any type of emotion, even pain.
Makishima Shougo
If you work on an infinite number of projects at the same time, it is inevitable that you will not achieve anything, simply because your time and energy are limited. But poor strategic performance, that is, designating in advance the areas of your life in which you do not expect excellence, helps you focus your time and energy more effectively.
To live this way is to replace the search for balance between work and personal life with something more reasonable: a type of deliberate imbalance.
Oliver Burkeman
When we think about the reasons why our business or idea has not worked, it is much easier for the mind to say "it's the others, who don't understand me" than to say "it's me, who isn't capable." However, to have successful ideas or businesses it is necessary to work thinking about your audience, not your idea.

If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the appropriate question, because Once you knew the right question you could solve the problem in less than five minutes..
Albert Einstein
If Heaven exists, I believe that Those of us who are religious will have many surprises. Because perhaps many people will go ahead of us who, even without being religious, have done good throughout their lives out of pure will, and not to fulfill the obligations of the Church.

When everyone is looking for gold, start selling picks and shovels.
Xabier Iglesias
If a society without people who go beyond its borders (laws) dies, but all borders (laws) protect from something... How can society evolve without crossing that line?
The answer is… you can't. The question is not "how", but rather "how many" people will be allowed to cross the border, knowing that for each person who takes the opportunity to create, another will take the opportunity to destroy.
Jaime Altozano (about Psycho Pass)
When I understood evolution I stopped being so revolutionary, and I saw the power in the accumulation of small changes.
Ozelot
The best knowledge is that which is useless.
Aristotle
In this aspect, we all tend to resemble the alienated. The only difference is that the real sick people are a little sicker than us. Only on this basis can we establish distinctions. Perfectly healthy, perfectly balanced men, if you prefer to call them that, the truth is that they hardly exist: you could not find more than one among hundreds of thousands of individuals, and even this one would turn out to be a rather imperfect model.
Fyodor Dostoevsky (Crime and Punishment)
Athena, the goddess of intelligence, never carries weapons with her, and if she ever needs them she asks Zeus for them. She hates battle, however, once she enters it she is never defeated; Even Ares, god of war, flees when she leads the enemy army, knowing that No one masters tactics and strategy at the level of Athena.
Robert Graves
The structures are not bad. Schemes are constraints that function as a starting point to create.
Jaime Altozano
Justice is subject to discussion, force is recognized immediately and without dispute. That is why force could not be given to justice, because force opposed justice saying that it was unjust, and that only it was fair. And so, by not being able to make what is just strong, what is strong has been made just..
Blaise Pascal
The best way to redeem yourself for your lies is to make them true.

François de La Rochefoucauld
I have had an extraordinary life on this planet, while at the same time I have traveled the universe using my mind and the laws of physics. I've been to the farthest reaches of our galaxy, traveled to black holes and returned to the beginning of time. On Earth I have lived in war, and also in peace, I have experienced success and also suffering; I have been rich and poor, praised and criticized, capable and disabled... I feel enormously privileged.
Stephen Hawking
It's no use praying to God to rain money on you.. It does not work like that. You have to steal the money and then pray to him for forgiveness.

There is no one who is not made for mathematics, since these are, in the first instance, a basic sense of the human being.
In this case, we talk about the sense that allows us to recognize patterns and simplify and group reality. They are like a sense of rhythm or humor: something we develop the more we use it.

Those who grew up in a completely disinfected environment are weaker than those who were sick.
Makishima Shoigo
An idiot is afraid of being made fun of... of his childhood... of his dreams... of their most beloved things...and they are also afraid of being lied to. He doesn't like being lied to. An idiot underestimates fear because he is honest with himself. Idiots are people who underestimate their desires. When they are hungry, they eat. When you want to read, they look for a book. When they cry, they seek comfort. I'm the kind of idiot with all those desires and fears. And I'm proud to be an idiot.

Kaneki Ken
From my point of view, a true friend never relies on another's ambitions. A person with the potential to be my true friend has to be able to fight for his dreams without my help, and put his heart and soul into his own goal, even if it makes him fight with me. For me, a true friend is someone who looks at me on equal terms..

It is a capital error to theorize before having data. Insensibly, one begins to distort the facts to make them fit the theories instead of fitting the theories to the facts.
