Don’t waste time. Don’t waste it in idleness; don’t waste it in regretting the time already wasted; don’t waste it in resolutions a thousand times repeated, never to be carried out. Don’t waste your time. Use all of it. Sleep, work, rest, think. – Arthur Brisbane

“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is just like an old time rail journey … delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.” ― Jenkin Lloyd Jones

“A healthy self-love means we have no compulsion to justify to ourselves or others why we take vacations, why we sleep late, why we buy new shoes, why we spoil ourselves from time to time. We feel comfortable doing things which add quality and beauty to life.”– Andrew Matthews

Frodo: “I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.” Gandalf: “So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil.”

“They say we are what we eat. I think it’s much deeper than that. I think we’re the songs we sing. The movies we love to watch. The bed we sleep in. The chairs we work in. The friends we speak with. The cars we drive in. The flowers we gather. I think that’s why spending some time in pristine nature is so valuable. May we surround ourselves with organic beauty and soak in the rays of light.” – Nathan Sinclair Vineyard

“People like to say that everything’s ‘perfect,’ and you look around and see that life is anything but that! But just as a weight bench is perfect for strengthening muscles but too uncomfortable for sleeping or sitting back and watching TV, life provides the resistance you need to learn and grow. You didn’t come here to sit back, relax and feel happy all the time; you came here to grow, and the way to grow is to bravely face the problems before you and improve yourself in the process. Life’s imperfections provide perfect opportunities to build your spiritual muscles.” – Shaun Roundy

“Believe in the opportunities that lie ahead. I am reminded of what Abraham Lincoln said when he sat on the sidelines for a long time, losing election after election and struggling to make a professional contribution. He said simply, ‘I will prepare, and perhaps my chance will come.’ He lived long enough to learn what everyone learns—that chance always favors the prepared life.” – Howard Hunter
