Quote
Quitting has never been an option for me... I have goals and I will never settle for a "classic" ordinary existence. I will live each day with purpose, focused upon my destination and regardless of the obstacles in my path; I will find a way to overcome them. My attitude makes the difference. When no one else believes in me, I will always choose to believe in myself.- Carla De Oliveira Agrosì & Kianu Starr

Quote
Most people’s biggest hurdle is that the person they take themselves to be does not exist. They are never that person who they think is going to do all that work. They make all their decisions based on that imagined person. And that person fails to show up. To succeed, you need to be your own master. You need to create that person who will succeed.

Quote
The world creates a self for us by virtue of the choices it forces us to make. We stay wedded to that self that has arisen in response to the world, never making any serious attempt at a reinvention. We behave as if we cannot assemble another self together. We remain oblivious of the fact that a lot of what we take to be us are in fact, reactions to the situations that life brings our way. But unless we realise this, we would never question the appropriateness or usefulness of these reactions.
