“Modern society will find no solution to the ecological problem unless it takes a serious look at its lifestyle. In many parts of the world society is given to instant gratification and consumerism while remaining indifferent to the damage which these attitudes cause. Simplicity, moderation and discipline, as well as a spirit of sacrifice, must become part of everyday life, lest all suffer the negative consequences of the careless habits of a few.” WorldWellsLooksProblemSpiritSufferingGivenCausesAttitudeSacrificeModernSeriousHabitDisciplineSolutionsConsequenceNegativeEverydaySimplicityLifestyleInstantDamageIndifferentConsumerismEveryday LifeModerationGratificationCarelessEcologicalOverconsumptionModern SocietyInstant GratificationNegative ConsequencesSerious Look Author:Pope John Paul II

“Consider these people, then, their way of life, their habits, their manners, the very tones of their voice; look at them attentively; observe the literature they read, the things which give them pleasure, the words which come forth out of their mouths, the thoughts which make the furniture of their minds; would any amount of wealth be worth having with the condition that one was to become just like these people by having it?” PeopleWayGivingMindLooksLiteratureVoiceWealthPleasureConditionsAmountHabitMouthsMannersToneFurniture Book:Arnold: 'Culture and Anarchy' and Other Writings Source: Arnold: 'Culture and Anarchy' and Other Writings
“My best advice for mental training is simply to create good habits, in order to build a sense of security and calm around you. Also, you could try to distance yourself emotionally from the whole situation. In my case, I just look at it objectively: We are two guys going inside a cage to work. That's it. Try to de-escalate the pressure. Take a couple of deep breaths. Don't hype things up. And stay positive, even if you're fighting for your life.” IfsTryingLooksTwoWholeGuyOrderFightingSituationCasesAdviceSecurityCoupleHabitTrainingPressureBreathsDistanceCalmMmaCagesHypeStay PositiveDeep BreathBest AdviceGood HabitsTwo Guys Author:Alexander Gustafsson
“Step back in time; look closely at the child in the very arms of his mother; see the external world reflected for the first time in the yet unclear mirror of his understanding; study the first examples which strike his eyes; listen to the first words which arouse within him the slumbering power of thought; watch the first struggles which he has to undergo; only then will you comprehend the source of his prejudices, the habits, and the passions which are to rule his life. The entire man, so to speak, comes fully formed in the wrappings of his cradle.” MenWorldFirstsLooksChildrenEyeMotherPassionSpeakUnderstandingStepsWatchesStruggleStudyExampleSourceArmsHabitFirst TimePrejudiceMirrorsStrikesHis EyesCradleBack In TimeWrappingPower Of ThoughtUnclear Author:Alexis de Tocqueville
