Every decision is like a murder, and our march forward is over the stillborn bodies of all our possible selves that will never be.
Your life is a reflection of how effectively you balance potential and kinetic energy.
Nobody ever talks about the pyramids that weren't built, the books that weren't written, the songs that weren't sung. Stop letting your fear condemn you to mediocrity. Get out of your own way.

Make this the day you take the first step in the beautiful journey of bringing your dreams to life.
