Fear, pride and love are three of the greatest motivators, but only love leads to happiness. That’s a line I made because I was asked to come up with a quote for motivation. Out of fear of sounding stupid I put some thought into it... I mean out of love for this person I put some thought into it. … [Read more...]
Perception: being optimistic
The Dalai Lama once said, “Be optimistic it feels better.” (Yes, I’m a Reverend quoting the figurehead of Buddhism, but there are a lot of similarities between our two groups).
