The following are some of my favorite quotes from Bruce Lee:
*. “The “moment” has no yesterday ortomorrow. It is not the result of thought and therefore has no time.”


*. “Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough: we must do.”


*. “Learning is never cumulative, it is a movement of knowing which has no beginning and no end.”


*. “The measure of the moral worth of a man is his happiness. The better the man, the more happiness. Happiness is the synonym of well-being”


*. ” Real living is living for others.”


*. “Defeat is a state of mind; no one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality.”


*. “Never waste energy on worries or negative thoughts, all problems arebrought into existence -drop them.”


*. “A goal is not always meant to be reached. It often serves simply as something to aim at.”


*. “Because one does not want to be disturbed, to be made uncertain, heestablishes a pattern of conduct, of thought, a pattern of relationship to man etc. Then he becomes a slave to the patter and takes the pattern to be the real thing.”


*. “Zen is not “attained” by mirror-wiping mediation, but by “self-forgetfulness in the existential ‘present’ of life here and now.” We do not “come”, we “are.” Don’t strive to become, but be.”


*. “Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness will never seek the light.”


*. “Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.”


*. “To grow, to discover, we need involvement which is something I experience everyday, sometimes good, sometimes frustrating.”

“If you risk nothing you gain nothing”
― Bear Grylls



“The difference between ordinary and extra-ordinary is so often just simply that little word - extra. And for me, I had always grown up with the belief that if someone succeeds it is because they are brilliant or talented or just better than me… andthe more of these words I heard the smaller I always felt! But the truth is often very different… and for me to learn that ordinary me can achieve something extra-ordinary by giving that little bit extra, when everyone else gives up, meant the world to meand I really clung to it…”
