Quote by Jeff Olson

“As I began examining my successes and failures, what I gradually realized was that the very same activities that had rescued me from failure, that had carried me from the failure line up to the survival line, would also rescue me from average and carry me from the survival line to the success line-IF I WOULD JUST KEEP DOING THEM.”

“Because when you give too many fucks—when you give a fuck about everyone and everything—you will feel that you’re perpetually entitled to be comfortable and happy at all times, that everything is supposed to be just exactly the fucking way you want it to be. This is a sickness. And it will eat you alive. You will see every adversity as an injustice, every challenge as a failure, every inconvenience as a personal slight, every disagreement as a betrayal.”

“GODMAN QUOTES 4 ***Fortunate disaster*** It’s unfortunate when you are not favoured in good luck. When it happens by mistake you are mistakenly taken unawares. When the evil that seeks to destroy you amends you, it is to you a fortunate disaster. What didn’t mess you can make you a better person. In midst of great disaster you are taught to learn from your mistake. The hardest problem to solve may not have the hardest solution. It’s a bigger problem living with your problem unsolved. It’s an answer to your problem when you have a solution to your problem. In a disaster that takes all from you, you are left with nothing but the worse of yourself. It is a pain that brings joy when you are with a fortunate disaster.”
