Quotes On Life And Overcoming Obstacles
The following are quotes gathered while reading Ryan Holiday's book,
"The Obstacle Is The Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph"
"Certain things in life will cut you open like a knife. When that happens--at that exposing moment--the world gets a glimpse of what's truly inside you. So what will be revealed when you're sliced open by tension and pressure? Iron? Or air? Or bullshit?"
"True Essence" Archan Nair
"Our perception determines to an incredibly large degree what we are and are not capable of. In many ways, they determine reality itself. When we believe in the obstacle more than the goal which will inevitably triumph?"
"Alchemy Resonance" Archan Nair
"To be physically and mentally loose takes no talent, that's just recklessness. To be physically and mentally tight is anxiety. But physical looseness combined with mental restraint? That is powerful."
"Inner Void" Archan Nair
"This crisis in front of you? You're wasting it feeling sorry for yourself, feeling tired or disappointed. You forget: life speeds on the bold and favors the brave."
"Cascade" Archan Nair"It's highly unlikely we will ever get rid of all the unpleasant and unpredictable parts of life. One needs only to look at history to see how random and vicious and awful the world can be. The incomprehensible happens all the time."
"Within Oneness" Archan Nair"It's much easier to control our perceptions and emotions than it is to give up our desire to control other people and events."
