“You are wise when you know what to ignore.”

What does it really mean to be a wise person? Is it about knowledge? Is it about wisdom? Or is it about how you live your life? Or is it about what is important to you?

According to Don Miquel Ruiz, “You are wise when you no longer act against yourself. You are wise when you live in harmony with yourself, with your own kind, with all of creation.” You can train yourself to become a person of wisdom. All you have to do is to change how you make certain decisions. You are wise when you are responsible for your decisions. You are wise when you know what is important to you in your life. You are a person of wisdom when you know what you want and you go for it with all your might. That is what wise people do. They don’t live their lives based on other people’s opinions. They live their lives based on their own opinions. You are wise when you choose your path, pursue your goals, and rise up again when you are knocked down. Don’t worry about where you are, worry about where you are going. Because where you are going matters more than where you have been. Trust yourself, work yourself, and your life will take care of itself.

“Success- go get it.” Yes, go get it. You can get it.

You are the only one who can stop you from achieving your success. It is achievable. It is within your reach. But to get there, to achieve your success, you must do your own part.

You must discipline yourself. Without self-discipline, you cannot achieve success.

The secrets to success are within you. To bring them out, you must dig deeper into your inner life.

According to General Colin Powell, “There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure.”

That is, if you really want to be successful, you must play your own role. You must do your job better than other people.

Success is making progress in your life. If you want to succeed in your life, you must do your work.

Success comes from doing something really well. You can succeed. It is up to you to create your own success.

When you succeed, celebrate yourself. No success is too small. It is your success. Celebrate it.

Don’t waste your time looking for the secrets to success. The only secret to success is hard work. Yes, hard work. It pays. Do not look for a new card, play your old card really well. If you do that, success will follow you to the gate of hell. And it will.
