"You don’t have to be the best. You should do your best."

"You don’t have to be the best. You should do your best."

Today I will do my best. Although my best may not be good enough for some people, it is always good enough for God. My worth as a person does not depend on the approval of others. i will do my best, and it will always be enough.

~ Swami Vivekananda

Take up one idea! Make that idea your life, Think of it. Dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles,nerves every part of your body be full of that idea and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

~ Les Brown

Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it. Your motivation must be absolutely compelling in order to overcome the obstacles that will invariably come your way.

“You can dance in the storm. Don’t wait for the rain to be over before because it might take too long. You can can do it now. Wherever you are, right now, you can start, right now; this very moment.”

Quit?

You can do this.

We can’t be afraid of change.

We can’t be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don’t have something better.

so..

Go for it, while you can. I know you have it in you. And I can’t promise you’ll get everything you want, but I can promise nothing will change if you don’t try.

Masterpiece

I find that fear and not wanting to take risks, and staying too comfortable makes people wait. 

They’ll say, 
‘I’ll wait until this happens, 
I’ll wait until I go to film school, 
I’ll wait until I have all the money, 
I’ll wait until they ask me.’ 
Don’t wait for permission. 
Seek without permission. 
There’s nothing to wait for. 
There’s no one coming. 
There’s nothing coming to do this for you. 
You have to do it yourself. 
The mantra ‘do it yourself’ ultimately says ‘do not wait for anyone or anything.’ 
You have to get up and do that thing. 
Especially as women filmmakers, as filmmakers of color, anyone who is outside of the dominant culture, anyone who is not getting handed anything, which is most of us, we cannot wait. 
You have to figure it out on your own and be confident in that and enjoy the ride. 
Because it is a ride. 
Even starting my PR firm and running that business. 
No one was going to hand that career to me. 
We have to seek without permission and don’t wait for anything.”

The kids who changed their fate

The kids who changed their fate, followed their destiny, changed the way they see the world. They are the ones who stood up to fate, who challenged their destiny, and in return found a family, a home, and themselves.

It will get worse and then it will get better.

Let's do this

— Nelson Mandela

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Ability Motivation Attitude

- Yogi Berra

Losing is a learning experience. 
It teaches you humility. 
It teaches you to work harder. 
It's also a powerful motivator. 

YOU HAVE TO FIND

When we wake up in the morning,

When we wake up in the morning, 

we have two simple choices. 

1) Go back to sleep and dream, or 

2) wake up and chase those dreams. 

The choice is entirely your's.
