your health your all

"My health will dictate how long I stay in the job. That's the only important thing. It is what you have to value most and what you have to protect most because without it you cannot do justice to yourself, your family or whatever you do in life.", Sir Alex Ferguson

action and happiness

"Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action," Benjamin Disraeli

do what is right

Leaders must have the conviction to do what is right and not what is popular, even if taking that path may not win them political points.

"Leaders must have the conviction to push through what needs to be done, rather than what is politically expedient or populist," Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore Wong Kan Seng.

give until there's nothing left

"Everyday we get to give the gift of life, it can be painful, it can be terrifying, but in the end it's worth it. Every time. We all have the opportunity to give. Maybe the gifts are not as dramatic as what happens in the operating room, maybe the gift is to try and make a simple apology, maybe it's to understand another person's point of view, maybe it's to hold a secret for a friend. The joy supposedly is in the giving, so when the joy is gone, when the giving starts to feel more like a burden, that's when you stop. But if you're like most people I know, you give till it hurts, and then you give some more."

we can't fight the past but we can learn from it

"Sometimes the past is something you just can't let go of. And sometimes the past is something we'll do anything to forget. And sometimes we learn something new about the past that changes everything we know about the present."

stop thinking about what's gonna happen, focus on what is right in front

"We're all susceptible to it, the dread and anxiety of not knowing what's coming. It's pointless in the end, because all the worrying and the making of plans for things that could or could not happen, it only makes things worse. So walk your dog or take a nap. Just whatever you do, stop worrying. Because the only cure for paranoia is to be here, just as you are."

Five Stages Of Grief

There are five stages of grief. They look different on all of us but there are always five.

1. Denial: This can't be happening, it just can't!
2. Anger: This isn't fair! I want to hurt what did this to me!
3. Bargaining: I would give anything to undo this!
4. Depression: Why do I even go on?
5. Acceptance: This has happened, and I can get over it.

However, not everyone goes through all five stages, and not everyone goes through them in that order.
