Obstacles are like wild animals. They are cowards but they will bluff you if they can. If they see you are afraid of them, they are liable to spring upon you; but if you look them squarely in the eye, they will slink out of sight.

It's all in the journey and it's an imperfect world. Do your best to make sense. Think critically. Decide if it's fact or belief. Respond don't react. And, whether it's the road less traveled or the main drag, chances are good someone along the way has made an observation that might help you. Why reinvent the wheel when you can learn from the stumbling, imperfect experiences of those who have traveled before - or are traveling with - us?

Mel Robbins on Setbacks
I allow myself 24 hours to be a complete mess. I gripe. I cry. I feel insecure. I make the party that rejected me entirely in the wrong (losers!). I punch the wall. I exercise. Then, it’s out of my system and it’s over.

One cool judgment is worth a thousand hasty counsels. The thing to do is to supply light and not heat.

John Wooden on Mentoring
It’s something all of us can do—recognizing our responsibility to those around us to model the actions, decisions and behaviors we know to be right. It doesn’t have to be anything more formal than that.
John Wooden
1910 - 2010
Thank you to John Wooden for being a great coach, a great human being, and such great inspiration in a life fully lived; a man who taught us by his example. The book, Wooden: insight, inspiration, intelligence, all John Wooden.

Barbara Holland on Muses
A catless writer is almost inconceivable. It's a perverse taste, really, since it would be easier to write with a herd of buffalo in the room than even one cat; they make nests in the notes and bite the end of the pen and walk on the typewriter keys.
