I see adults around me always trying to speed up the time. The trick is that we always have enough time. It's us who are impatient.

Hence impatience is arguing with reality. It's the most severe form of rejection of reality we live in.

To live in harmony and peace with yourself and the world you have to cherish the time given and never force it, never push it forward. Feel it. Watch it.

Live it with gratitude and immersion.

Don’t recall someone’s bad or swear words said to you during a day or a life.

The man who shares everything he’s heard on his way home is similar to a man who doesn’t take his shoes off before come in.

The test of a business man is not whether he can make money in one or two boom years, or can make money through the luck of getting into the field first, but whether in a highly competitive field, without having any initial advantage over his competitors, he can outdistance them in a perfect honourable way and keep the respect of himself and of his community.

There are two ways to editing your texts: by adding or by shedding.

So ask yourself while working on your next article, post, or any other type of copy:

Do I need to add something or do I need to shed something?

In the end, it boils down to one of these two options.
