The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.
No man is free who is not master of himself. He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at. It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. Freedom is the only worthy goal in life. It is won by disregarding things that lie beyond our control. Difficulties are things that show a person what they are. First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do. The more we value things outside our control, the less control we have. If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid. |
