Pain is a great instructor. Once you've been through it, you know things you couldn't have learnt otherwise. Don't waste your pain, let it instruct you.

You are a light, so shine!Your competition is not with peopleYour competition is with the darkness around you.

You can't follow the trend and blaze a trail at the same time. You'll have to choose.

Prayer brings people, people solve problems.

You become your interests. Those you don't become, you follow. Those you don't follow change over time. The ones that remain unchanged, follow you until you become them.

New beginnings are exciting, they infuse you with fresh energy, but that excitement quickly dissipates, if not channeled into action plans.

Pursuing your dreams is like trying to solve a puzzle - you have a picture of the end but not how all the pieces connect. Still, if your energy fizzles, there's no solving the puzzle.

If opportunity comes first, embrace it and develop capacity as you go. If opportunity delays, develop capacity while you wait. Just don't waste time.

Pressure reveals your strengths, comfort reveals your weaknesses.

Sometimes you have to be willing to abandon what you started, to end up in a place, where what you started could never have taken you.
