overcoming

Everything passes, but nothing entirely goes away.

Life is going to beat you up, it wouldn't be fair if you didn't throw some punches back at it

Guess what? __omeday_ almost never comes around. It gets lost somewhere between the shouda, woulda, couldas of your life. Let go of whatever is holding you back and dare to live _ boldly, bravely, and courageously - now. Remember, none of these elements mean you have to be fearless. It__ absolutely okay to be afraid! Acknowledge that part of yourself and then push beyond that fear, whatever it may be. I__ not brave. . . . I__ just taking every opportunity to LIVE.

Fear will do one thing and one thing only: hold you back

And certainly both Horses were doing, if not all they could, all they thought they could; which is not quite the same thing.

You can never be upset with the people who forced you into your dream or up higher.

Some people simply REFUSE to be happy. If they were stuck in a tunnel you can show them the way out and give them a light, but they will just sit there complaining about how they got there. They are more willing to fight to STAY there instead of fighting to coming out. Okay it happened. Now what? Stop focusing so hard on how you got there, focus on how you're going to get out! Keep it moving!

We all have problems. Or rather, everyone has at least one thing that they regard as a problem.

The future will present insurmountable problems- only when we consider them insurmountable.

I realize the simple truth is that power isn__ control at all- power is strength, and giving that strength to others. A leader isn__ someone who forces others to make him stronger; a leader is someone willing to give his strength to others so that they may have the strength to stand on their own.

We have to go into the despair and go beyond it, by working and doing for somebody else, by using it for something else.

Revolution must take place within one's own mind.

God can deliver you so well that some people won__ believe your testimony.

Life is an ongoing learning path where you make mistakes & you learn from it. You get better, you grow emotionally, socially and gets mature gradually. There are significant times where we are good and when we are not so right; but later on what we choose for our-self from that learning defines how better we can become. And at the end, it is better choice to surprise self. Why ? Because, the real challenge lies in overcoming the shortfalls of own-self and competing with self only. One has to exceed the expectation from the self. Otherwise, perfection seems to be a myth! Yet, the true beauty is in saying Yes to the process to betterment, not in the final destination 'cuz the perfection can never be static or stagnant..

Often, people give up without knowing success was just around the corner; if they had only preserved a little longer, if they had only tried one more time, they could have succeed.

For me, those weeks in Boston, with Wilma, became a lesson in her ability to be __f good mind,_ in her phrase, which also meant a people__ ability to survive.

I know it is difficult to believe in your own courage or fortitude when everything inside of you feels weak and shattered. But do not believe what you feel. You will not be easily broken.

What else has kept any of us going, but love of someone or the memory of that love?
