“Do all that you can do in a perfect manner every day, but do it without haste, worry, or fear. Go as fast as you can, but never hurry. … The moment you begin to hurry you cease to be a creator and become a competitor.”- Wallace D. Wattles

Being busy is not being productive. The world wants productive people, not busy people.

Helena Lopes

It does not matter what you do, if you are just running around, you are not going to get any thing done. But if you focus, if you evaluate yourself, if you know what you are doing, you do not need to rush. You do not need to compete with other people. All you need to do is to add value to your life.

It does not matter how busy you are. If you are not chasing your purpose, you are chasing nothing.

If you are not making your life a masterpiece, you are making your life a masterpieces.

Andrea Piacquadio

Do not do that to yourself. Because you are here to conquer yourself, not to conquer others. Why? Because if you cannot conquer yourself, you won’t be able to conquer others. Hold your faith. Do not let it go. You need it. Without faith, there can be no success.

Brett Jordan

If you want to connect with your soul, you must strive for stillness, not busyness.

Learn To Conquer Yourself

In the words of Ferdinand Foch, “The will to conquer is the first condition of victory.” To conquer other people, you must first conquer yourself. You must develop the courage, the power to face yourself. Find the courage to be your true self. Don’t pretend to be who you are not. Don’t hide yourself. Give yourself the power to pursue your dreams, to defeat your fears, and to conquer yourself.

When you are faced with a problem, believe in yourself, face it, and move on. Don’t cry. Don’t complain. The Scripture says, “All things are possible to him who believes.” Just keep learning to be what you really are. According to Henri- Frederic Amiel, “Learn to … be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not.” From now on, resign from treating yourself badly. Resign from pretending to be who you are not. Because life is not about pretending; life is about loving. Life is about sharing. Life is about doing. If you are not learning to be what you are, you are learning to be who you are not. That is scary!
