Let me tell you this: If you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it’s not because they enjoy solitude. It’s because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.

I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up all alone.

It's not. The worst thing in life is ending up

with people who make you feel alone.

Robin Williams

I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so compatible

 as solitude.

Henry David Thoreau

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love 

and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're

 not alone.

 Orson Welles

In order to be open to creativity, one must have the capacity for constructive

 use of solitude. One must overcome the fear of being alone.

Rollo May

The best part about being alone is that you really don't have to answer to anybody.

 You do what you want.

As I get older I'm more and more comfortable being alone.

People in general disappoint me.

I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone.

I had already found that it was not good to be alone, and so made

 companionship with what there was around me, 

sometimes with the universe and sometimes with my own

 insignificant self; but my books were always my friends,

 let fail all else.

Joshua Slocum

Without great solitude no serious work is possible.

Pablo Picasso

If you are afraid of being lonely, don't try to be right, or tell the truth."

You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.

Wayne Dyer.

 

Be Creative and innovative. Think differently and positively.

 

A blind man sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: “I am blind, please help.” There were only few coins in the hat.

A woman was walking by. She took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. She then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. She put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind man. That afternoon the woman who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The man recognized his footsteps and asked, “Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?”

The woman said, “I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.”

What she had written was: “Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.”

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

“It is He, Who has created for you (the sense of) hearing (ears), sight (eyes), and hearts (understanding).

Give thanks and have a beautiful day :-).

Words of wisdom to help you fulfill your potential

 “Always Do What You Are Afraid To Do” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

In each of our lives, there is this one person – if not ourselves – who holds us back in accomplishing our dreams. What better feeling to prove that very person wrong by conquering your worst fears and doubts.

“Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail.” – Charles Kettering

Believe that it is absolutely impossible to fail, and you might just start acting as per your thinking as well! In spite of the worries that things may not work out, believe in its possibility, and your actions will reflect this positivity too!

 “Keep steadily before you the fact that all true success depends at last upon yourself.” – Theodore T. Hunger

Hunter tells us about how ultimately, our success and failure comes down to us- our hard work, our tenacity, and our perseverance.
