    Bricolage is a term used to describe the ability to create, simply by using the tools currently at your disposal. Some people can be flung into any situation, and they will adapt to their surroundings and use what they find to get to where they want.

    Other people will use it as an excuse. Being aware of what is practical and what is inadequate can stop you from fueling your idle hobbies and fixate that potential energy and effort into sensible aspects of your life.

    Work is only noticed when it’s not done.

    A guy will promise you the world and give you nothin’,
    and that’s the blues.

    One priority may seem harmless, but it may collide with another priority. They can get in the way of each other or cancel each other out, and we end up getting nothing done. Goals shouldn’t be mixed with “things to do.”
  • Missy Esparza - Zionhas quoted5 years ago
    It’s impossible to prioritize everything logically. We are a society that will be more impressed by an explosion in a movie than an Olympic gold medal
  • Missy Esparza - Zionhas quoted5 years ago
    That type of pressure is misguided. Why fulfill someone else’s dream? Why act out another’s desire? We can share a dream. We can carry the torch of another torchbearer. But we cannot compromise our dreams or squash them by setting someone else’s dreams on top of ours.

    Courage is grace under pressure
  • Missy Esparza - Zionhas quoted5 years ago
    The Good of man is the active exercise of his soul’s faculties in conformity with excellence or virtue…Moreover this activity must occupy a complete lifetime.

    – Aristotle

    We do need to be aware of what others think, but it is not as important as what we think. We all have wants and dreams. Spend life with someone who makes you happy, not someone you have to impress.
  • Missy Esparza - Zionhas quoted5 years ago
    how much of that is actually you, and what stops you from becoming that?
  • Missy Esparza - Zionhas quoted5 years ago
    Offer the best version of you to the world.
