Be The Best #1

You should never try to be better than someone else, you should always be learning from others. But you should never cease trying to be the best you could be because that’s under your control and the other isn’t. (J. Wooden)

«Un viandante cammina per una strada assolata, finché giunge nei pressi di un cantiere, ove tre scalpellini lavoravano sotto il sole cocente.
Si avvicina al primo di essi e gli chiede: “Cosa stai facendo?”
E quello: “Non lo vedi? Sto sudando!” e il suo sguardo era torvo e il suo volto affaticato.
Si avvicina al successivo scalpellino, gli rivolge la stessa domanda: “Cosa stai facendo?”
E quello: “Non lo vedi? Mi sto guadagnando il pane!” e il suo sguardo era spento e il suo volto rassegnato.
Il viandante prosegue e ripete al terzo scalpellino la domanda: “Cosa stai facendo?”
E quello: “Ma come, non lo vedi?” Stiamo costruendo una cattedrale!” e i suoi occhi brillavano di soddisfazione e sul suo volto non vi era traccia di fatica.» (P. Schultz)

Will #1

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them: a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. (M. Ali)

Awareness #1

 A man found an eagle's egg and put it in a nest of a barnyard hen. The eaglet hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life the eagle did what the barnyard chicks did, thinking he was a barnyard chicken. He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he would thrash his wings and fly a few feet into the air.

Years passed and the eagle grew very old. One day he saw a magnificent bird above him in the cloudless sky. It glided in graceful majesty among the powerful wind currents, with scarcely a beat on his strong golden wings. The old eagle looked up in awe. "Who's that?" he asked. "That's the eagle, the king of the birds," said his neighbour. "He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth - we're chickens." So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that's what he thought he was.  

Anthony de Mello (1931 - 1987) Jesuit Priest
