Sunday, 10 September

Two thoughts from Thomas E. Ricks

“When there is no coherent strategy, tactics, no matter how flashily executed, become meaningless.”

“Collecting the facts is a revolutionary act. Insisting on the right to do so is perhaps the most subversive action possible.”


Monday, 11 September

Two thoughts from Ernest Holmes

"Life is a mirror and will reflect back to the thinker what he thinks into it."

"Where the mind goes energy flows."


Tuesday, 12 September

Two thoughts from Raynor Winn

“Life is now, this minute, it’s all we have. It’s all we need.”

"I’ve always thought you should do what you can while you can, and live without regrets, then there’s no need for bucket lists."


Wednesday, 13 September

Two thoughts from Rosamund Zander

“I am the framework for everything that happens in my life.”

“I am here today to cross the swamp, not to fight all the alligators.”


Thursday, 14 September

Two thoughts from Dan Gilbert

"People are drastically overconfident about their judgments of others."

"Perceptions are portraits, not photographs, and their form reveals the artist’s hand every bit as much as it reflects the things portrayed"


Friday, 15 September

Two thoughts from Elbert Hubbard

"The greatest mistake you can make in life is continually fearing that you'll make one."

"Constant effort and frequent mistakes are the stepping stones to genius."


Saturday, 16 September

Two thoughts from Robert Glazer

“People who are grateful also don’t feel that the world owes them anything. They believe it’s their responsibility to go out and get it.”

“Either you run the day, or the day runs you.”


Bonus Two Thoughts from Chesty Puller

“Pain is weakness leaving the body.”

“If you want to get the most out of your men, give them a break! Don’t make them work completely in the dark. If you do, they won’t do a bit more than they have to. But if they comprehend, they’ll work like mad.”
