Words to live by and mottos to own.

1.If wake up and think you are kicking butt...you will,if you wake up and think you are defeated...you are.
2.If you quit someone else wins.
3.Jealousy and complacency are useless emotions.
4.When looking through the glass at someone else,be sure to see your own reflection first.
5.The more you let someone get to you,the more power you give them.

My signature has a full story behind it so I would like to share it with you.

A bird was flying over a farmers field when a gust of wind blew him to the ground.
A cow walks by and takes a poop which lands on the bird.
The bird is thinking "this sucks" when all of a sudden a barn cat walks up and starts licking him clean to which the bird thinks "how nice"
The cat than eats the bird.

Moral of the story....just because someone craps on you doesn't make them your enemy and just because someone helps you doesn't make them a friend.

This one I learned here on ats and keep it in the toolbox.

6.Its not how you survive the storm...its how you dance in the rain. (Credit to WOS)

Know thyself

"Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink." - Me

"People only say negative things when they lack confidence in themselves."

"Don't seek recognition, let it come to you."

You can believe anything you want, that doesn't make it true.

You can't turn one hair on your head white or black.

Not going down the wrong path will eventually lead to the right one.

Sometimes doing nothing is the best action.

Be still and know…

There's a couple of originals in my siggy but one I've been liking lately is, "Karma's a bitch. Stay on her good side." Don't know who said it but that is the truth right there.

My favourite at the moment,

"Keep doing what you're doing and you'll keep getting what your getting"

Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.

#6,hangs in a frame on my wall Drums. One of the best men I ever met. I have hundreds of quotes I could post,but only a few truly mean a lot to me. My signature,obviously,as he has been a huge inspiration in how I view the world and live my life. I also posted this awhile back in another thread.... It is the two simple words, "On By ". It is a command for sled dogs used to keep their focus on the path they are on and not be distracted.

If you dislike someone upon meeting them, they probably remind you of something in yourself that you don't like.
Take responsibility for how you feel 100% of the time.
Be the change you want to see. ~Mahatma Gandhi
Live and let live...
Life is not fair - expecting it to be will only bring frustration.

Thanks for the inspiration, I have been real depressed as of late. Hopefully some of this will inspire me.

Christopher McCandless is a very inspiring person to me.
Read the book about him many times over.

As an outdoors guy myself,I'll learn from his mistakes and never be that careless.

I wholeheartedly agree.

"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. Love is the law, love under will."

Imagine if this was actually possible...



Everybody's got a little monster inside. We are born equally capable of bad or good. The trick is raising your bad side to become good while not letting your good side go bad.
