Stop being who you were and become who you are.
Paulo Coelho
We are not the person other people wish we were. We are who we decide to be.
Paulo Coelho
Chess first of all teaches you to be objective.
Alexander Alexandrovich Alekhine
Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan. They never ask if that plan is theirs or if it was created by another person. They accumulate experiences, memories, things, other people's ideas, and it is more than they can possibly cope with. And that is why they forget their dreams.
Paulo Coelho
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
Aesop
Its always easy to blame others. You can spend your entire life blaming the world, but your successes or failures are entirely your own responsibility. You can try to stop time, but its a complete waste of energy.
Paulo Coelho
Do not count your chickens before they are .
Aesop
You discover that your old I, along with everything you ever learned, is absolutely no use at all in the face of those new challenges, and you begin to realize that buried deep in your unconscious mind there is someone much more interesting and adventurous and more open to the world and to new experiences.
