Leo J. Muir

Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful.

You measure the size of the accomplishment by the obstacles you had to overcome to reach your goals.

There will be times when your best isn’t your good enough. There can be many reasons for this, but as long as you give your best you’ll be OK.

Be yourself. No one else can be you.

The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything.

If you want truly to understand something, try to change it.

Fear has two meaning; ‘Forget Everything And Run’ or ‘Face Everything And Rise.’ The choice is yours.

There’s never been a doctor who served many patients who, despite their best efforts, did not lose some of them to death. But they understood that was part of life itself.

How dare you settle for less when the world has made it so easy for you to be remarkable?

… be aware that even before you have reached your ultimate professional destination … you can and should have a substantial impact on the world in which you live.

Be open to new information and ideas.

You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.

Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.

If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

I know for sure that what we dwell on is who we become.
