We love being mentally strong, but we hate situations that allow us to put our mental strength to good use.
— Mokokoma MokhonoanaThe problem with having problems is that ‘someone’ always has it worse.
— Tiffany MadisonThe human brain always concocts biases to aid in the construction of a coherent mental life, exclusively suitable for an individual’s personal needs.
— Abhijit NaskarAttitude is 100% under your control – (yours to choose, use or lose, as they say)Happiness, fulfillment and satisfaction in a life ALWAYS and ONLY come as a consequence of some other activity. That is you don’t just create ‘happy’ or ‘satisfied’ – you have to be doing something with your life that as a byproduct creates these states.That’s it.Told you it was simple.Alright, I admit, writing about how to create a ‘successful life’ is easy – because to create something out of your life is 99.9% Mental Focus and 50% ( as Yogi Berra would say and .01% for those of you who are paying attention) -knowing how to get the result and doing it.Writing about it is easy; it’s the doing that’s hard.
— Martin GoverOne way or another we are all biased, but still we have the modern cortical capacity to choose whether or not to let the harmful biases dictate our behavior.
— Abhijit NaskarThe ability to continue moving when you are feeling scared, fearful or lazy is the sign of true mental strength.
