How far can you run from your problems?
Put in the work and hope for the best, but never expect any specific outcome. Because as long as you are aligned, whatever the result may be, it’s still the best for you.
Simply believing in yourself is not enough, you must follow up with the work and produce enough output to give you confidence in that belief. That’s the magic.
Pay evil with evil because people know what they’re doing.
Forgiveness is weakness and if people know you’ll forgive them, they are inclined to do it again.
The most dangerous anger comes from someone with a good heart. They hold it in, stay calm, smile, they forgive until one day they can't take it anymore. Stop pushing good people too far.
