1 " When you know your role in life, living makes sense because of clarity, and the loads become enjoyable to carry. "
― Innocent Mwatsikesimbe , The Vision: Wisdom to Find Success in Life (Mere Reflections)
2 " There are many things that you can avoid by just knowing something. Knowledge of self is the most notable knowledge I pursue. By knowing myself, I avoided dead dreams and a meaningless life. "
3 " A life without a vision is like a kite let loose; it is directed by the forces that be, never giving even the slightest of resistance to life's pressures, eventually ending up far away from home (that comfortable place). "
4 " When you choose to act on your problems, you cease to be a victim of circumstance and become a force of change; that's when you transition to not only being a survivor, but to being a leader or hero too, and an inspiration to those still in the victim's mindset. "
5 " Change is a friend to a life with a vision, but an enemy to an aimless person. "
6 " You shouldn't expect anyone to give you a vision. A vision is not given, it's created, by you. "
7 " Money doesn't change you, it reveals you. Money is just an enabler, whatever a person chooses to do with it is a reflection of their character. "
8 " One of the most valuable gifts that a person can give (or receive) is a productive mentality. It is with a productive mentality that people change their lives for the better, in ways profound. "
9 " To achieve something, action is needed; but thoughtful and calculated action is better. "
10 " We need work as much as we need rest; the two complement each other, one drawing power and enjoyability from the other. Rest is sweet after work, and work enjoyable after a good rest. "
11 " I believe that if you can't agree with how they think, then it's better to learn from their difference. "
12 " Nobody alive today can tell me how much I am worth. I change that everyday. "
13 " I do not wish for anyone's downfall. The world needs successful people. I just think of ways to add more value to myself, and wish that my adversaries would do the same. "
14 " My worth changes with every choice I make and every action I take. I can choose myself to uselessness or to being valuable. "
15 " Laziness is when you accede to the misconception that work is unnecessary. "
16 " There is an equation that I like to use when looking at my life's progress:Current Worth - Past Worth = Progress or Regression "
17 " What constitutes worth? In short, I would say the valuable attributes you have in relation to how you can productively use them... All attributes have value, but they have worth if they are used productively. "
18 " If you have attributes that you could use less productively last year than you can this year (meaning you are more productive), then you have made progress. The opposite equates to regression. "
19 " Is it not a sign of immaturity to wish for someone's downfall? To wish that he or she fails at whatever productive endeavours they are aiming at? Wishing to be the only one succeeding, while everyone else fails?It's a world where we are all dependent on one another, one way or the other; and trade is happening at a much more sophisticated level than ever before. It is to our collective benefit for people to succeed. "
20 " In the way that you need to clear the way to make a road, those who betray and abandon you expose things you need to remove from your life. They reveal the mistakes you made in trusting them and how you can avoid them in the future, and move on. "
