My 10 Favourite Life Changing Quotes and How They Apply to My Life
<p>Cleverly constructed quotes can either motivate us to do something useful with our lives or exactly the opposite. How many times you have read quotes like the ones below and thought, ‘Hell yeah!’.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>‘Friday is My Second Favourite F-word!’</p>
<p>‘Why Don’t You Get Out of That Wet Coat And Into Dry Martini?’</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Quotes can be as much inspiring as also giving us a green light for socially accepted standards that long term might not work in our favour. These are taps on the backs that basically promote instant gratification that no one really likes to say NO to. I know. I am one of those muppets.</p>
<p>That’s why it is important to have something in place that works like a charm for long term goals.</p>
<p>I have index cards notebook full of good quoting specifically for those occasions. It will be hard to get 10 out of those as they all share some kind of wisdom depending on the situation, but I will try my best!</p>
<h1>#1: ‘We Suffer Not Because Something Bad Happens, But Because Of How We Analyse the Situation’ — Michel de Montaigne</h1>
<p>I love this quote as it is the reminder that NOTHING HAS ANY MEANING EXCEPT THE MEANING, WE GIVE IT. I remember the first time that made sense to me. It was like pleasant slap in the face and magical awakening. Hold on, do I really make up all these meanings behind different situations. Am I really this upset or am I making it twice as worst because I am used to it??</p>
<p>Think about it for a second. It is us, nobody else that creates a feeling that is relevant to the situation. Yes, often hormones take place, but after initial blast, we choose to maintain the feeling assigning it an extra meaning.</p>
