Choose A Challenge Instead Of Competence

Do The Things That Interest You And Do Them With All Your Heart. Don't Be Concerned About Whether People Are Watching You Or Criticizing You. The Chances Are That They Aren't Paying Any Attention To You. It's Your Attention To Yourself That Is So Stultifying. But You Have To Disregard Yourself As Completely As Possible. If You Fail The First Time Then You'll Just Have To Try Harder The Second Time. After All, There's No Real Reason Why You Should Fail. Just Stop Thinking About Yourself.

One Of The Blessings Of Age Is To Learn Not To Part On A Note Of Sharpness, To Treasure The Moments Spent With Those We Love, And To Make Them Whenever Possible Good To Remember, For Time Is Short.
