When are you too old to learn something new?

There are many branches of perspective and insight.
They grow out of a tree of ideas.
The soil of past learning feeds the roots of a tree
when it is filled with the necessary nourishment.

                  I think,
            therefore, I am.
        I am, therefore, I think.
          I think that I think,
           Therefore, I think
                 that I am.
                       I
                    think.

The biggest answers often come in the smallest packages.

If the answer is not right in front of you,
look around; you'll find it.
M. Alibrando

You are much less than you can become.
    It's waiting for you to become it.
        Whatever it is, it can wait.
            When you are ready, it will be there.

You cannot grow unless you are courageous enough to do badly,
or even fail altogether.

Failure is an opportunity.

Not reaching ones goals on a given day does not preclude reaching it tomorrow,
or the next day.

One of the hardest things to do is say, "I like myself."
M. Alibrando

"You need to keep finding yourself a little more each day."
"Overcome your limitations in order, patiently."
"Like everything else...
...practice."
R. Bach

Pursue your goals free of any ill-feelings towards others.

Feel free within, you'll feel free without.

If you must continually practice patience with others,
then you must have very little patience with yourself.
M Alibrando
