“Strike the shepherd and the sheep will scatter.”

I just know who I am and what’s comfortable for me and I don’t personally do things in life because others do it or because that’s what society tells me I should do.

If you have no enemies, find a way to make them.

Become who you are by learning who you are.

Mistakes and failures are precisely your means of education. They tell you about your own inadequacies.

Lord, protect me from my friends; I can take care of my enemies.

Life goes by very fast. And the worst thing in life that you can have is a job that you hate, that you have no energy in, that you’re not creative with and you’re not thinking of the future. To me, might as well be dead.

A lot of, a big problems that people have nowadays is that they can’t stand moments of no stimulation in their life so they’re constantly lurking, looking for entertainment, video games.

Only create associations with positive affinities. Make this a rule of life and you will benefit more than from all the therapy in the world.

Mastery is not a function of genius or talent. It is a function of time and intense focus applied to a particular field of knowledge.

If you’re really driven and you want something deep, hard enough in life, you’re going to get it.

All the most successful people nowadays who are truly successful and innovative in their field are not people motivated by money.

You cannot make anything worthwhile in this world unless you have first developed and transformed yourself.

We must create our own world or we will die from inaction.

The world wants to assign you a role in life. And once you accept that role you are doomed.

Grand strategy is the art of looking beyond the present battle and calculating ahead. Focus on your ultimate goal and plot to reach it.

You’re not going to be persistent and tenacious enough if you don’t love what you’re doing. If it’s not something that excites you, that appeals to you deep down inside.
