Optimism quotes - from my notebooks

How to move from playing serious i.e. training, studying, practising, playing hard, to playing for fun and enjoyment. Rather than serious, how to avoid the need/want to win mentality. To enjoy the process and game irrespective of the result. How to move the ego, results orientated persona, aside and let the inner enjoyment come through. Let your heart come through. Let your creativity come through.

What a story the rest of your life will make!

There's more to you that meets the eye.

Work hard but set your own priorities.

You've never been here quite like this before, time, place, setting. It is a fresh beginning, make the most of it. To relax and take things more easily. Don't worry or be fearful when things don't quite go the way you wanted. Life has the habit of improving things if only you have the patience to allow it to happen and the eyes to see it. Life is stranger but more fulfilling than fiction. Realize the world won't stop if you share and don't try to control everything. Believe it can be so. Enlist support, guidance and assistance in your quest for a balanced and happy life.
