When you stop reading books, you start losing verbal dexterity, depth of thought and imagination. A closed book is a closed mind. Don't EVER stop reading.
Part of growing up is realizing you're not above anything. Homelessness, job loss, heartbreak, illness, failure, even death can happen to anyone. Life can humble you overnight. Stay grateful, stay grounded, and never look down on someone struggling.
Measuring your progress against others is a sure fire path to constant disappointment. Measure your progress against where you started, where you’ve been, where you were yesterday. It’s far more rewarding and informative to evaluate yourself against yourself.
Imagine a car with the endurance of a Toyota, the comfort of a Mercedes Benz, the aura of a Rolls Royce, the aesthetic appeal of a BMW, the technological advancement of a Tesla, the fuel efficiency of a Honda.
It doesn't exist, but just imagine. That's how it sounds when you say you want a beautiful, submissive, independent, prayerful, sexy woman.
The most toxic lie this generation believes is “I don’t owe anyone anything.” That’s the mindset that destroys friendships, relationships, families and communities.
