The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance. The wise grows it under their feet.
⁃James Oppenheim
Don’t wait to build the life you want.
Start now.
Build your goals around the sort of person you want to become instead of some materialistic value or external validation.
As Einstein said: try not to become a man of success. But rather a man of value.
Respect is a two way street.
Hold yourself to a high standard and treat others with respect. But equally, make sure they earn your’s too.
This is one of the most effective methods to build strong relationships.
