Look well into thyself - Marcus Aurelius

Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength 

which will always spring up if thou wilt always look there.
- Marcus Aurelius

Everyone should carefully observe which way his heart draws him, 

and then choose that way with all his strength.
- Hasidic Saying

Always be a first-rate version of yourself,
instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
- Judy Garland

Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.
- John F. Kennedy

Put some distance between yourself and whatever is concerning you.
Distance in space or time always creates a new perspective.
- jlh

Find a time and place of solitude. 

Look into the distance and into the future. 

Visualize the tomorrow you are going to build -- 

and begin to build that tomorrow, today.
