When you show yourself to the world and display your talents, you naturally stir all kinds of resentment, envy, and other manifestations of insecurity... you cannot spend your life worrying about the petty feelings of others.
Talking to your father can be therapy in its purest form. Sometimes, a few minutes of his wisdom, reassurance, or even silence can bring more peace than hours of overthinking.
Let me tell you something,
SAVE A MAN, ONCE.
If he doesn't show commitment to be saved, abandon him.
There is a spiritual reason why he is suffering.
Most men living insufferable lives deserve it.
No matter how hard you try to show him the keys that will open the doors of freedom, he will not pick them.
Do not take so seriously people’s promises or their ardor in wanting to help you.
If they come through, so much the better, but be prepared for the more frequent change of heart.
Rely upon yourself to get things done and you will not be disappointed.
Human approval is unstable. Someone may praise you today and criticize you tomorrow, so it's wiser to anchor your life in deeper principles than in other people's opinions.
In dealing with fools you must adopt the following philosophy: they are simply a part of life, like rocks or furniture.
All of us have foolish sides, moments in which we lose our heads and think more of our ego or short-term goals. It is human nature.
Seeing this foolishness within you, you can then accept it in others.
This will allow you to smile at their antics, to tolerate their presence as you would a silly child, and to avoid the madness of trying to change them.
You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present. Since nothing seems urgent to you, you are only half involved in what you do. The only way to change is through action and outside pressure.
