A person is like an empty bottle; what you put in determines what you become. If it becomes too cluttered or heavy, it becomes unbearable. Remember to periodically empty yourself and fill it with beautiful things; the simpler you live, the happier you will be.
Do not lose your temper over trivial matters. One who cannot get angry is foolish, but one who chooses not to succumb to anger is wise.
Life is meant to be managed, not calculated; relationships are meant to be nurtured, not tested; loved ones are meant to be cherished, not harmed; wealth is meant to be enjoyed, not worshipped; lies are meant to be exposed, not covered up; and trust is meant to be deepened, not challenged.
Every effort yields a harvest. When you struggle with financial worries or feel the sting of seeing peers succeed, perhaps it is because you have not put in enough effort. As long as you keep striving, you will eventually achieve what you desire.
Every task should be completed with excellence; beware of leaving things unfinished.
