I saw a LinkedIn post by Jade Bonacolta from a couple months ago which had a list of excellent aphorisms worth quoting from Colby Kultgen titled 20 Sentences in 60 Seconds That Will Change Your Life:
1] Your new self will cost your old self.
2] Ambition without action becomes anxiety.
3] You get 4,000 weeks if you’re lucky – stop waiting.
4] The most dangerous addiction is the approval of other people.
5] You teach people how to treat you by what you tolerate.
6] Your worth isn’t tied to your productivity.
7] ‘No’ is a complete sentence – you don’t have to justify yourself.
8] The people who matter won’t leave you for having boundaries.
9] ‘The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.’
10] Reach out to people just because they crossed your mind.
11] Vera Wang designed her first dress at age 40 – it’s never too late to start.
12] If it costs you your peace, it’s too expensive.
13] Discipline is choosing what you want most over what you want now.
14] Action creates motivation – not the other way around.
15] Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from.
16] Fear doesn’t stop death – it stops life.
17] Notice the people who bring out your favorite version of yourself.
18] Be addicted to your passions, not your distractions.
19] If it’s out of your control, it deserves to be out of your mind.
20] It’s better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room.
The twentieth also appeared as a sign on a post in the Public Speaking Group by Tony DeMeo.
The door was adapted from a cartoon at OpenClipArt.
