- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again,

unchanging truth or absolute truth, can we arouse in
ourselves a sense of intellectual responsibility.
- Hu Shih

Be resolute in your goals, but flexible in your tactics.
There are times that call for repetition and perseverance;
and there are times that require new ways of thinking and doing.
The challenge is knowing one from the other.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.

Our Habits


We first make our habits, and then our habits make us.
- John Dryden

Habit and routine have an unbelievable power to waste and destroy.
- Henri de Lubac

If we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions.
It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives,
but what we do consistently.
- Anthony Robbins

Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again,
but expecting different results.
- Rita Mae Brown (also attributed to Albert Einstein)

Successful people are simply those with successful habits.
- Brian Tracy


Most of us are prisoners of habit, and don't even notice that we do the same things, think the same things, want the same things each day - mostly without conscious thought.

Today, examine your beliefs, your actions, your wants, to determine whether they still represent your highest purpose.

Choose your Habits, Choose your Life.

Never Quit - unless it's driving you crazy

Albert Einstein: Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
- Albert Einstein

There is a fine line between perseverance and insanity. At what point have you tried your best, and it's time to do something different? It's a balance - a paradox. If you get in the habit of giving up as soon as something gets difficult, your life won't work, but if you keep tilting at windmills - madly trying the same thing again and again, your life also won't work.
