“Thinking is usually a waste of time and energy, since thinking is essentially a rehashing of what we already know. As a matter of fact, thinking is an easy way to confuse yourself.

“Imaginary testing is unreliable, and in many cases, it's a huge waste of time and energy. In truth you just don't know what will happen until you try. You may start a business, and it could take off in ways no one could predict. Or it could be a complete failure. You could ask for a date and end up with the partner of your dreams. Or you could be rejected cold. It's great to visualize what you want, but you never really know what's going to happen until you act.” KnowsWayWantTryingMayEndsDreamHappensActionAsksEnergyCasesHugeColdWasteWhat You WantPartnersYour DreamsWasting TimeImaginaryRejectedTestingTime And EnergyUnreliable Author:Steve Pavlina

“The first and most important rule to observe...is to use our entire forces with the utmost energy. The second rule is to concentrate our power as much as possible against that section where the chief blows are to be delivered and to incur disadvantages elsewhere, so that our chances of success may increase at the decisive point. The third rule is never to waste time. Finally, the fourth rule is to follow up our successes with the utmost energy. Only pursuit of the beaten enemy gives the fruits of victory.” GivingFirstsMayImportantUseEnergyForceChanceEnemyVictoryWasteThirdsIncreaseFruitBlowPursuitChiefsWasting TimeElsewhereFourthBeatenSectionsDisadvantagesFollow Up Author:Carl von Clausewitz
“Never waste time and energy wishing you were somewhere else, doing something else. Accept your situation and realize you are where you are, doing what you are doing, for a very specific reason. Realize that nothing is by chance, that you have certain lessons to learn and that the situation you are in has been given to you to enable you to learn those lessons as quickly as possible, so that you can move onward and upward along this spiritual path.” Has BeensReasonSpiritualMovingCertainEnergyGivenWishRealizingChanceSituationAcceptingPathLessonsWasteWhere You AreWasting TimeSomewhere ElseSpiritual PathTime And EnergyOnward And Upward Author:Eileen Caddy
