Risk-taking seems to be worth the effort, but most of the time, it is better to be safe and play your cards at the right time.

#4 “Life is pain. Anyone who says otherwise is selling something.” – William Goldman

If you find a person selling the thought that life can be full of joy and happiness and know for a fact that he is trying to sell or put on a facade. There must be something of interest to him when you follow, which is why he is promoting his “happiness”.

#7 “Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.” – Alan Dundes

It is said that we should keep to ourselves unless we know about what we are speaking, as words once spilled cannot be gathered back. Some people might try to gain attention by talking loudly and more than what’s required, this is basically proving how dull they are instead of proving their intelligence.

An intelligent person would choose to remain quiet but strike at the right time.

#8 “It’s not just Monday. Your whole life sucks.”

People suffer from Monday blues. Is that because of their work-life or just because of their life-life?

#9 “You only die once.”

#12 “If at first, you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it.” – W.C. Fields

You need to stick to something that you feel that you are passionate about. You need to keep trying, even if you fail twice or even thrice. If you keep failing at it, then just quit. Quit at the right time and realize that this task was not meant for you and you need to stop going crazy about it.

#13 “Doing nothing is very hard to do… you never know when you’re finished.”

#14 “There’s always someone on Youtube that can do it better than you.”

If you think that you are the best at something, then think again. Stop thinking about “you being the best” and think of ways by which you can beat yourself.

#16 “Your life can’t fall apart if you never had it together.”

#17 “It’s all downhill from here.”

#18 “Go ahead and take risks – it gives the rest of us something to laugh at.”

Risk takers have always been laughed at when they fail. People who do not take risks become the critics and pass judgments on the ones, who do so.

#19 “The reward for good work is more work”. – Francesca Elisia

#20 “Every dead body on Mt. Everest was once a highly motivated person, so… maybe calm down.”

People are always highly motivated to do something huge to make a mark in the world, but such sheer excitement can sometimes be our downfall. We might be so engrossed in the destination that we fail to maintain the practice that we must stick to every day. 

This is why, we should slow things down, take some time and do things efficiently and effectively.

When you are unemployed, every day is a weekend for you. Life seems to be full of enjoyment and parties with little or no effort.

#24 “You’re naturally funny because your life is a joke.”

#25 “People who say they’ll give 110% don’t understand how percentages work.”

This is a common thing that you will find on most motivational quotes posters, which is mathematically incorrect. One should give in their all in a task and should refrain from measuring their efforts as it would beat the purpose. 

#26 “Don’t rest until you’ve complained about everything.”

#27 “The meaning of life is to find your gift. So good luck with that.”

#28 “Quitters never win, and winners never quit talking about how they won.”

It will be the rational person who will be looked up to as an outcast in the society as his thoughts are much different than theirs.

#30 “If life doesn’t break you today, don’t worry. It will try again tomorrow.”

Life is a tough race and it keeps on bringing forward obstacles for you to dodge or conquer. If you feel that you are satisfied right now, life will carry in more elements to make you feel otherwise, the next day.
