[LifetimeLoser 208]

I just wanted to share some of the phrases that inspire/motivate me. Some are lyrics, some are from movies and some I have no idea where they came from. What are some of yours???

"just keep swimming. just keep swimming." - Nemo movie

"Ain't no one gonna break my stride, Ain't no one gonna pull me down. Oh no I got to keep on moving...stay alive." - Matisyahu

"The stone that the builder refused will always be the head corner stone." - Bob Marley

"No one can make you feel inferior without your permission." - Eleanor Roosevelt

"Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live." - Jim Rohn

"

and god help you if you are an ugly girl

course too pretty is also your doom

cause everyone harbors a secret hatred

for the prettiest girl in the room

and god help you if you are a phoenix

and you dare to rise up from the ash

a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy

while you are just flying back." - Ani Difranco 32 flavors

“Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”–Winston Churchill

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 is not just in some of us; it is 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.

“The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.

-ALEISTER CROWLEY
