What’s a quote that you have heard that hit different

Or really stopped you in your tracks or was what you needed to hear?

I like this one for example

don’t be so busy chopping wood that you forget to sharpen the axe 🪓

Something like Lincoln said

If I only had an hour to chop down a tree, I would spend the first 45 minutes sharpening my axe.

What’s yours?

I think I shared this one before, one of my favorites comes from Dale Wimbrow, apparently Coach Parcells likes this one too....

"...You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years, And get pats on the back as you pass, But your final reward will be heartaches and tears If you've cheated the man in the glass..."

Another words, look in the mirror and if you don't like what you see, do something about it, or else....lol

There are two that never get out of my mind:

“The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.”

But the most important is this one.. This refletcts what i always knew:

We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
