Influences Quotes

“History helps us to create co-relation with event or action. It clarifies how things are related to each other. Ample knowledge of history let people to know about attitudes and feelings as resulting from an action.History is not merely a summation of previous events, but instead its purpose is to show reasons for why and how these events happened and give perspective to pain, breakthroughs, war, associated with them. It tells that how explorers reached out and started sharing culture.By making us more cognizant of how we got to this point, it teaches us how to continue to approach things in manners that work and refrain from committing a mistake repeatedly. History should help us learn lessons from our forefathers and Mothers past mistakes and their achievements along with what they created.”

“Even if Banareng Movement is too fast for u, don’t quit, bcoz it’s real & powerful. and u must be part of it. History can not and will never only be the one of our forefathers, bcoz u must create something for your grand-grandchildren to continue the blood existence and that is why many clans died becoz the relay was broken by fear, laziness and selling each other out... Now all Banareng are free and it’s time we all stand and increase the bar of Energy that will last 3000 years from now.... even if we build a dome with that Energy,Then let it be!”

“Look after your own skin.! Whether they are family or friends, manipulators are difficult to escape from if u get blinded by their Love. Give in to their demands and they will be happy enough, but if you develop a spine and start saying no, it will inevitably bring a fresh round of head games and emotional blackmail. U will notice that breaking free from someone else’s dominance will often result in them accusing you of being selfish. Yes, you r selfish, because you hv stopped doing what they want you to do for them. You must always be 10 steps ahead to survive. Powerless people use various tactics, such as getting upset, withdrawing, nagging, ridiculing, pouting, crying, or getting angry, to pressure, manipulate, and punish one another into keeping this pact. However, this ongoing power play does nothing to make them happy and mitigate their anxiety in the long term. In fact, their anxiety only escalates by continually affirming that they are not actually powerful. Any sense of love and safety they feel by gaining or surrendering control is tenuous and fleeting. A relational bond built on mutual control simply cannot produce anything remotely like safety, love, or trust. It can only produce more fear, pain, distrust, punishment, and misery. And when taken to an extreme, it produces things like domestic violence.”

“Your pride for your nation should not come after your nation becomes great; your nation becomes great because of your pride in it. And again, Achievements are not earned through proficiency alone. They are in fact rewards of our efficiency.Proficiency is gathered knowledge, while efficiency is the ability to translate the knowledge into action.What we need now is a nation of great people who live to positively impact others and build enduring legacies so that we can stand strong for years.”

“It’s important to understand your Emotions, An emotion is a strong feeling, a feeling such as joy, sadness, fear, or anger that moves us all the times. The experience create and makes us live not just exist. It transforms our life from a plain tasteless events, facts into a living and breathing experience.Our feelings controls our energy. When we are upset, it’s usually hard to think clearly, behave properly and choose wisely.On the other hand, when you feel joyful, secure, cared for and appreciated your heart rhythms become even and smooth and that is where the power is, that is where the positivity is generated.Emotional control and effective interpersonal relationships have made the difference between success and failure. You have to learn to ride the waves of emotion, instead of letting them knock you over.If we can learn to balance the control of our instincts, reflexes and basic physical functions and also learn how to drive our feelings and emotions as they are our inner guide of likes and dislikes then it’s a win, bcoz that is were our own survival is.”

“Family trees: We can all make time and do our family trees .Make it smaller so that u can have an energy to make it work.One of my most interesting realizations from this thinking and from seeing many examples is that we probably should think and execute on a smaller level. If we do this, we are more likely to succeed.This is how you can get to know the 0.01% of your bloodline who left written records, the ones closest to you in time, the ones you may have known in this life. Start by talking to the oldest living members of your family or anyone who knew them. You want two pieces of information from them- all of the names and dates you can get (full names, maiden names, birth and death dates and places) and any stories they may be able to tell.The stories will give you insight into your own life and the human condition, and if you are lucky ,it will carry you through joyful and tough times for the rest of your life. Even if the stories aren’t all that meaningful, they will at least give you a glimpse of who these people who made you were.”

“Remember gore We were made to believe that we represent nothing,,,,,,”But we were never fools. “!This operation is vast beyond imagining and we have killed the entire force that was established to bring our entire generation down.They failed to kill us, all of us, for we were slaves and we had no entitlement To creativity or be allowed even the barest hope of freedom. Without us, they have no empire....”

“Our participation on rebuilding Ba ga Mohlala it’s a relay.And I say this bcoz we are continuing with wat was established by the founder,back in 1500AD or so,but the participation its needed for the relay to be effective.The opportunities are there for us to create the resources to maintain and keep the relay operational.the blood power is there for us to make the relay achievable. That is why Bare”Ke Mohlala Mmelega ditšhaba abuša a di bolotša, re dikgomo tša sefoka difulela maribeng le madibeng a kgole, mowe bokgaka le bonong ba palelang go fihla gona. Ke ka baka leo re binago raba raja ka gore re filwe bogoshi bja batho le dibata tša naga.”

“The sort of people that we become is, in large part, determined by the voices that we choose to listen to. Truly, we do not have a choice of listening versus not listening. We all obey certain voices, and thus the question is not “Will I listen?” but “Which voices will I listen to?” But it is not only a matter of choosing to listen to good voices over bad ones. If only it were as simple as the proverbial whispering angel and devil on our shoulders. It is also a matter of whether we will choose to listen to different voices, voices that don’t sound the same as our own. Will we listen to the voices of different cultures, ethnicities, backgrounds and beliefs? Will we listen to the voices that unsettle us and might make us feel anxious or guilty? If we choose to listen only to voices that echo our own, we will be limited in our growth and stunted in our spirituality. Choosing to tune in to only one or two stations may be comfortable, but it is not transformative. The voices we want to hear are not always the same as the voices we need to hear.”

“Authority confined in you does not make you a leader. It is the authority created by you that makes you influence people with your purpose.”

“Ballot papers do not define leaders. Leadership is defined by conviction, vision, passion and inspiration.”

“Every consultant needs to understand that their competitive advantage and brand equity doesn't just come from their training and experience. It is the historical context of where they were born and raised, and major influences in their lives that makes each consultant unique.”

“Though [Marco] Polo himself states frankly that he has never visited Japan -- and thus that what he has to say about it is second-hand and perhaps inaccurate -- the notion of the mysterious island kingdom of Cipango that he planted in European consciousness at the end of the thirteenth century was later one of several powerful influences that spurred Christopher Columbus forward in his crossings of the Atlantic at the end of the fifteenth century. This was so because Columbus -- underestimating the circumference of the earth and knowing nothing of the existence of the Americas or of the Pacific Ocean -- believed that he could reach Cipango, and thence the Chinese mainland beyond, by sailing directly westwards across the Atlantic from Europe. Columbus is also likely to have calculated that Cipango would be reached after only a relatively short journey towards the west -- for he had read Marco Polo, who describes Cipango, erroneously, as lying 'far out to sea' fully 1500 miles to the east of the Chinese mainland (the true distance is nowhere much more than 500 miles).”

“Everyone who is a comedian or an actor or a musician have many people who influenced them. They in turn influence others. It is a great thing that is handed down. We need to know our history because our art is created from the re-imaginings from our minds with the seeds of the greats who combined as a potpourri in our heads to create something new. You can see it in my stand up. You can hear it in the music of today”

“(About the reason why scholars hold inclination towards Arabic as a heresy): [...] one must not accept the customs of a people whose language one loves, nor cover up small coups d'état with the gold plate of language, nor dupe young people and Maecenases into believing that one can fence as soon as one knows how to parry and thrust and hold the épée and body.”

“So many of the animals are sensitive, exquisitely attuned to the emotional state of those around them. They can pick up the smallest frequencies of distress or anger, and it can make them act in ways that clueless keepers disapprovingly call "erratic." It's not erratic, though, to be influenced by the mood of someone close to you. Humans do it all the time.”
