I tell everyone this who I know is working towards a goal in their endevour. Ignore what negativity others bring forth &: “Be like water, take the path of least resistence”
I always say, “Hands are for helping”. It’s fun, quirky and accurate during the day. At night it’s as dirty as you’d like it to be.
“End every day with NO regrets”
Well, my motto IS – “I was born ready”
Look both ways you may learn something new.
The pleasure of what we enjoy is lost by wanting more.
“live the dream, all the way to the end!!!
“Nothing exceeds like excess…”
Cogito ergo genero: I think, therefore I create
@jonsblond that’s perfect, you good….. edited: Google says it’s a fortune cookie, but.. it’s still great.
@pekenoe You caught me! I still like to live by it though. I’ve got it stuck to the fridge. :)
or the “frizzer” as they say here at fluther
@jonsblond agreed, I just sent it too everyone on my email list.
Live life, take risks, reach for goals beyond your dreams. Only then will you reach you destiny.
Can I recycle an old one? “Judge not, lest ye be judged.”
Sometimes it’s ok to color outside the lines. (I saw it on a card somewhere.)
I guess just take responsibility for your own situation and beware of complacency
Life is not a popularity contest.
“Think.”
Or more explicitly, “Think for yourself.”
Practice makes perfect,
or in my case, makes you fall flat on your face, just to make you get up and try again.
From the late great George Carlin:
“I say live and let live. That’s my motto. Live and let live. Anyone who can’t go along with that, take ‘em outside and shoot the motherfucker.”

Without a doubt: “No Day But Today”
Life can be trusted. It’s safe to relax.
It’s better to be lucky than good.
Mmm.
What you give is what you get.
That’s DEF the case with me.
Do the right thing. Period.
My favorite by someone else, not sure who:
Life is a jar of jalepenos, what you eat today, will bite you in the ass tomorrow”
@pekenoe lol… Oh how that burn hurts! :)
@jonsblond Oh yeah…..luv em though. Thanks, guess the next fav saying as you get bit would be “C’mon ice cream”
My motto would have to be: “If you want to change your life, change your life.”
A close second favorite would be: “The sun don’t shine on the same dog’s ass everyday.”
“I walk my talk, please walk your talk or kindly move aside”
write your name in kindness love and mercy on the hearts of the thousands you meet and you will become an undeniable master piece none can ever forget…..
this was told to me by a teacher i once had as a kid. its always stuck with me and still does
the next best one is live each day with no regrets and as if it were your last:)
