It’s good to know what you want and not settle for less. However, it’s a turn off if you’re someone who looks down on a cup of instant coffee, a non-gourmet meal, or off-brand clothing. 85. Sentimental items are not as important as memories. The view of “You Only Live Once” encourages people to make the most out of the present moment.

The results of those tasks will improve and it will give you time to focus on your core genius (the things you are an expert on). 106. Listen to your customers for new ideas. Read more patience quotes for some inspiration during trying times. 11. Choose kindness all the time.

Life is a speeding bullet. When you get older it seems like years have gone by in the time it takes you to blink your eye. Life might give lemons from time to time. However, there is always an opportunity to turn some misfortune into a gift. Always look for that. Remember, it is within your power to live the life that you want. The people who are with you can only support you and encourage you as you reach for your goals.

It has style: the gowns, cobbled streets, domed libraries and sixteenth-century portraits. It is old and it is beautiful and it is grand. And it is unfair and it is narrow and it is cold. Walking in Oxford, one catches a glimpse through each college doorway, a flash of tended green lawn and ancient courtyards. But the doorways are guarded and the guardians are suspicious and hostile.
