You
(page 33)
Our uniqueness makes us special, makes perception valuable - but it can also make us lonely. This loneliness is different from being 'alone': You can be lonely even surrounded by people. The feeling I'm talking about stems from the sense that we can never fully share the truth of who we are. I experienced this acutely at an early age.
Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.
Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.
When you please others in hopes of being accepted, you lose you self-worth in the process.
The best things in life are often waiting for you at the exit ramp of your comfort zone.
Sports teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose-it teaches you about life.
Style is joyful if you allow yourself to have joy.
You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.
I'm a big believer that your life is basically a sum of all the choices you make. The better your choices, the better opportunity to lead a happy life.
You cannot look up at the night sky on the Planet Earth and not wonder what it's like to be up there amongst the stars. And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the cosmos.
Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it.
You look at things you enjoy in your life, but much more important is what you can do to make the world a better place.
People in the street will either call me 'Prime Minister' or 'Justin'. We'll see how that goes. But when I'm working, when I'm with my staff in public, I'm 'Prime Minister'. I say that if we're drinking beer out of a bottle, and you can see my tattoos, you should be comfortable calling me 'Justin'.
It always surprises me how much my followers appreciate how candid my photos are — they may not have a particularly unique subject, but it's more about the light you shed on the subject than the subject itself.
When you blame others, you give up your power to change.
Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world.
Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.
Once you have an innovation culture, even those who are not scientists or engineers — poets, actors, journalists — they, as communities, embrace the meaning of what it is to be scientifically literate. They embrace the concept of an innovation culture. They vote in ways that promote it. They don't fight science and they don't fight technology.
A little of what you call frippery is very necessary towards looking like the rest of the world.
There's always going to be the circumstances you can't plan for. There's always the unexpected relevance and the serendipity.
