Anger is such a devious emotion. It controls even the best of us by a firm grip around the neck, making us say and do things we often come to regret.

By forcing your dark secrets to surface, and revealing your evil capacities, you can begin to work at them, and put them in a space where you can control their power and influence in your life.

What separates us from animals is that we, unlike them, have one additional step between stimulus and action. We have the ability to think before we act.

For you to reach a state of creative enlightenment, you must wage war on yourself, and start working. Only then will inspiration reward you with its presence.

We do not let our ego plan a counter-attack when people underestimate our creative abilities, we speak through our work instead.

It is easy to opt out and follow the stream down the river and end up stranded without knowing how you got there or how you can reverse the years of swimming with the tide.

If you can plan ahead into the future, you will also be able to detach yourself from minor difficulties today.

You must learn how to separate a detrimental situation from which you must burn all the bridges from when you must partake in hard work that will provide you with desirable results, where you must persevere in pushing through to the end.

You must be hard on yourself and know when it’s time to quit, but you must be even more relentless when it comes to staying on the job and push through if that is what the situation is demanding.
