"If you have legs that work, walk in the right direction. If you have an audible voice, say constructive words. If you have functional eyes, see great things. If you are in a position of power, use it productively and if you have a sound mind, think exceptionally; for such is not a given, but grace."

"Constantly re-evaluating your purpose is the best way to ensure that you are pursuing the goals of who you are and not who you used to be."

Quote_1.png
Amber Hurdle

"We live in a world where people are so busy trying to find someone that's "good enough" for them, that they have failed to stop and ask themselves if they are in fact good enough for other people! This is the result of a feeling of false entitlement that has been instilled in the minds of people today. "Everyone" deserves "the best" from the "Universe" however, nobody is teaching anybody to stop and try to become the best for their own selves and for other people. When everybody thinks they are the best, everybody falls short of the best that they can actually be."

"Remain aware of your weak points; not knowing or choosing to ignore them, means creating dangerous 'blind-spots' in the path to your success."

Quote_1.png
Amber Hurdle

"Seek to develop your skill and talent to a level of relevance. Create a platform to shine and make sure you are bringing a difference to the areas that require your expertise. A pastor who does not teach or pray for people, a football player always playing pool, a body builder who doesn't eat but sleeps all day, a student who studies only towards examinations, a politician without a cause and a business without a customer service culture all have one thing in common " sooner or later they will all become irrelevant. Never miss the chance to practice the call of your mission, even if you are not getting paid for it."

"Most of the great men who converted their time to products although late are still making more impact in the world today than a greater percentage of people who are still alive."

"Give that your one life your best input so that it could yield the best output in the form of products that will impact your world positively."

Quote_1.png
Saint Augustine
"Bad company is like a nail driven into a post, which, after the first and second blow, may be drawn out with little difficulty; but being once driven up to the head, the pincers cannot take hold to draw it out, but which can only be done by the destruction of the wood."
Quote_1.png
Saint Augustine
