“But in order for anyone to become successful, sometimes you have to be that driven and focused, and maybe there isn't a lot left over for personal relationships - although I certainly have had them. It's not as if I cut myself off, but it makes them very difficult.

“Anyone can steer the ship, but it takes a leader to chart the course. Don't ever underestimate the power of planning. You can't make your vision come to life unless you outline each goal-driven step at a time. And you can't reach your full potential unless you plan how to make the most of your purpose and passion. When you look around and see people who are the captains of their ship, invariably they have taken pains to chart their successful course through life.” PeopleLooksPainPurposePassionCoursesGoalLeaderVisionStepsSuccessfulTakenPlansDrivenPlanningShipsCaptainsUnderestimateOutlinesSteersFull PotentialPurpose And Passion Author:John C.

“Our moral reasoning is plagued by two illusions. The first illusion can be called the wag-the-dog illusion: We believe that our own moral judgment (the dog) is driven by our own moral reasoning (the tail). The second illusion can be called the wag-theother-dog's-tail illusion: In a moral argument, we expect the successful rebuttal of an opponent's arguments to change the opponent's mind. Such a belief is like thinking that forcing a dog's tail to wag by moving it with your hand will make the dog happy.” ThinkingMindFirstsBelieveTwoHandsMovingBeliefMoralSuccessfulDogJudgmentIllusionArgumentAtheistDrivenOpponentsReasoningTailsWagsMoral JudgmentRebuttalWag The DogMoral Reasoning Author:Sam Harris
“If I am seen as successful, it's all the more reason not to change - not to lose track of friends, not to be driven everywhere, not to go and get away from the world.
