Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Buddha
If you don%26#039;t like something, change it. If you can%26#039;t change it, change your attitude.
Maya Angelou
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
Bill Cosby|||Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
Buddha...
What this means is that time spent thinking about the past...of how things %26quot;used to be%26quot; is wasted. Time spend daydreaming about how you wish things would be in the future is wasted. One should concentrate on today. Work on making today what it should be...because tomorrow isn%26#039;t here yet and yesterday is gone forever.
If you don%26#039;t like something, change it. If you can%26#039;t change it, change your attitude.
Maya Angelou...
This is basically like the Serenity Prayer. %26quot;God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.%26quot; She%26#039;s saying that if there are things in your life or your world that you do not like...do whatever is in your power to do to change it. If it is something that you have no control or influence over...then you have to change the way you think about it. You have to change your mindset...so you accept that thing...so you avoid obsessing on things that are beyond your control. So you don%26#039;t waste your time and energy needlessly.
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
Bill Cosby...
He%26#039;s saying that in order to achieve your goals, you must overcome your fear of failure. If you allow your fears to hold you back. If you allow them to make you be conservative in the way you approach life...then you will surely fail. Your drive...your ambition...your devotion to your goals, must be greater than your insecurities and fears.
How these things relate to everyday life is that they are absolute truths. These are not just opinions or witty sayings. They are fact. Dwelling on the past, daydreaming about the future, worrying over things that we cannot change or allowing your fears and insecurities to dictate your actions are all things that will get in the way of you ever having the life you want to have. You must be the best %26quot;you%26quot; that you can be every day. You must concentrate on today, and face each day with hope and desire. Then, you will live life to its fullest and find the success and peace of mind you are looking for.
