  1. I like George Benhard’s quote that honors the life spent making mistakes. It is those mistakes that eventually leads us to the right path, if we learn from them of course. You saved the best for last. For years I spent most of my time worrying about the things I could not control instead of focusing on those that I can. What a great article packed with wisdom quotes. The video clip is icing to the cake 🙂

      I am glad that you like George Bernard Shaw’s quote – ” A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.” It is actually my favorite, as I said to Gyvinek.

      I used to be so afraid of making mistakes and worrying about what people thought. All down to a lack of confidence.

  2. Beautiful!

    I especially appreciated the theme throughout of embracing uncertainty, which I think the world has been needing to hear for a while, and especially here and now. We’re being reminded right now that we cannot control the future. All we can do is keep going, keep trying, doing our best, and not letting worry take over our lives.

  3. Thank you very much for these quotes,

    I think at this time, so many people need them, as we are facing a very difficult crisis, I liked the one by Walt Disney  that says “All the adversity I’ve had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me…………” This has big impact on me.

    I believe in the phrase, Obstacle Is The Way, you can’t start any journey in your life without facing obstacles, obstacle is the way.

    Thank you again!
