A dozen original inspirations from The Optimist

  • Make it a point to leave every person you encounter better than you found them. You'll be amazed by the sheer reward of inner joy that will be yours.
  •  Count it all joy when you're in desperate need of something and the world says no to you. Experience has taught me that there's always something better around the corner.
  • Go  slow on things that are very pleasant to the eye, because underneath the glitter often lies some grotesque secrets.
  • People who have knack of finding faults with others, criticising and attacking everything, have a pile of inner wounds that need healing. Run away from such people before they intoxicate you with their toxic  mindsets of negativity.
  • What people often call "good luck" is the favour of God shining upon them. So next time something good happens to you, don't say you're lucky. Lift your hands and say thank you Jesus for your favour.
  • If you want to be happy and successful quit comparing yourself with others and begin to delight in your distinct uniqueness and applying your potential.
  • A truly great person to me is one who has learnt to do unto others as he/she would like them to treat him/her.
  • Happiness or non thereof is a matter of choice. You can be penniless yet happy and contented, or have all the money in the world but be miserable.
  • The best quest is the quest for  identity where you truly know who you are and why you were created.
  • A God-connection should precede a people-connection.
  • When you begin make it in life and win some crowns, be wary of human praise lest you get carried away and start throwing your weight around as an important person. That's when the skid to your downfall begins to pick momentum with unstoppable fervour. 
  • Jotting down spontaneous inspirations that seize me
  • A man or woman who has learnt not to squander time is on his or her way to greatness.
