Quote of the day: Wednesday

“Too many of us are not living our dreams because we are living our fears.”

___Les Brown

After posting this quote on Instagram, I clicked on @lawofattractionlive’s Instagram Story. Their affirmation of the day is “My dreams are far more important than my fears. I keep going no matter what”. I don’t know about you but I am taking it as a sign that I need to push ahead with dreams relentlessly. 😊

Quote of the day: Wisdom Wednesday

“Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.”

___ Jimi Hendrix

For a talker like me this was as interesting quote to wrap my head around. I came to realise that he is right though. It’s much harder to learn from someone else when you are doing all the talking. I therefore need to zip it and listen more often to learn and grow. Silence is golden and also necessary to hear your wise inner voice that is also trying to steer you and guide you in the direction you need to go.
