Your intelligence is not determined by your examination grades but by your willingness to learn, your ability to think and solve problems.
Embrace the uncertainty. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
Study hard what interests you the most.
Don't care about what others think of you. Think for yourself.
Learn by understanding, not by memorizing.
It's Okay to say "I don't know" and "I need help". Humility is necessary for growth.
Your skills are much more important than your grades.
Work as hard and as much as you want to on the things you like to do the best. Don't think about what you want to be, but what you want to do.
Not knowing is not a bad thing like they teach you in School. It is an opportunity to learn something.
There is no harm in doubt and skepticism, for it is through these that new discoveries are made.
Nobody figures out what life is all about and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.
All the time you're saying to yourself, "I could do that, but I won't" - which is just another way of saying that you can't.
This painting of a young woman breastfeeding an old man in a prison cell was sold for Euros 30 million. The painting may look perverse but the story behind is amazing. #Thread
The poor man was sentenced to "death by starvation" for stealing a loaf of bread during the reign of King Louis XIV in France. The woman was his only daughter and the only visitor allowed to visit him in his cell. She was searched thoroughly such that no food was taken in.
When after 4 months the man still survived with no weight loss, the authorities were perplexed and started spying on her in the cell and to their utter astonishment found her to breastfeed her father to the fullest sharing her baby's milk.
1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to.
2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person you borrowed remembers or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes..etc.
3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.
Wealth is a strength. It can be a tool that can benefit many. It can create freedom for you and your family, health, happiness, security and endless memorable memories.
Greed is a weakness. A struggling child's selfish desire, an endless hope of nothingness.
1A) In life, many seek wealth, but are really chasing greed. It is important to not only understand the difference, but to recognize both in its many forms.
Wealth builds you up while greed tears you down.
Wealth can create a life while greed can destroy many lives.
You can also set a timer on your phone for 15 minutes and commit to doing your task until it goes off, usually just starting will give you momentum
2. Comparison
Comparison can truly ruin your life. Even when you experience positive things, the victories will be hollow.
There will always be other people with “better” circumstances than you.
Remind yourself that we are all human. No one is perfect.
3. Thinking Instead of Doing
Do u spend more time thinking about doing a task than it would actually take to just do it?
If there is something you’ve been needing to do for a while do it today or schedule it in your calendar right now & stop wasting your mental energy on it.
