Today's Muse

Go hard.

Don't waste your time on people who waste your time.

Wanting and liking are not the same thing. If she's hard to get, trust me, she's not worth it.

No great "catch" wants to 'wrap you around her finger'--a great catch, naturally and without resistance, wraps around yours.

Games are for children. Grow up.

Productively obsess. At will. Passions tend to come to life and create new life when you obsess.

Be willing to pounce on a new opportunity, like the king of the jungle after her prey, even if it means giving up something you're "set" on.

A lived life is built upon roads that twist and turn. Narrow-mindedness leads only to missed opportunities.

Luck is Chance's flexible will. Take a chance!

If it's killing you, quit it!

"Quitting is actually incredibly empowering. It's a reminder that you control the situation. Sometimes it's the bravest option, because it requires you to face your failures." -Tina Seelig

Face your failures. And your fears. Empower yourself to see reality as is. Fantasies are meant for the bedroom.

Desire for control is the handmaiden of the weak. Self-control is characteristic of the strong. However, never underestimate your own impulse control. Some of us just really love chocolate. = )

Narcissism isn't really 'love of self.' In fact, narcissists not only do not love themselves, they hate humanity, starting with their own.

Inevitably, we'll face the decision to either keep doing things our way--when we want and for ourselves--or take into account what others want as well. Mutuality, in keeping with healthy relationship standards, dictates that we sometimes do things purely for the sake of another, despite that it's not what we'd usually do or how we'd usually do it.

Go on! Do that thing because you simply and genuinely want to see another happy.

Happiness is not wanting anything more than what you have.

Ambition is best in small doses. Following through creates the tastiest desserts.
