What you think about yourself is more important than what others think about you.
Oddly enough I've had times in my life that I didn't think much of myself. :(
Its amazing how we evolve and learn to love ourselves.

Life is about the result of your choices, if you want a different life, make different choices.

Higher than my expectations

This is not new, it is very old. William Drummond a Scottish Poet wrote
"He who will not reason, is a bigot; he who can not, is a a fool and he who dare not, is a slave".

It's not about how big the house is, it is about how happy the home is.

"The only thing an old man can tell a young man is that it goes fast, real fast, and if you’re not careful it’s too late. Of course, the young man will never understand this truth."​

Anyone can jump a motorcycle, the trouble begins when you try to land it.

I saw somewhere that they had several Chargers all painted the same when filming that show.
They actually destroyed about 300 of them filming those jumps. On some of them, a late edit on the film revealed the front end sheet metal buckling on the landing, right before they cut to the next scene.
