Water Your Own Grass

Jeremy — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 15:00:38 +0000

Don’t be afraid of a little “my time”. Date night, my computer time, my church time, my work time, my cake time. Wait, OK you can share cake…maybe just a little. Make sure your sprinklers are directed toward you and your family every now and again…

Persistence

Jeremy — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 03:57:16 +0000

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan “press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race” – Calvin Coolidge

Never Give In

“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never — in nothing, great or small, large or petty — never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” – Winston Churchill

Success

Jeremy — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 04:50:36 +0000

Last time I was home the topic of success came up at the Person household so I asked my dad how he would define success. I liked it so much (like everything else) I documented it.

How he defines success:

Satisfaction with who you are

Where you are

What you are doing

And how well you do it

Everyone Is A Genius

“Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” - Albert Einstein

Music and Life – Alan Watts

From the comments: “I think his point is our society is built around the idea that, in life, you have to complete the journey before you deserve your reward. But society is wrong; life’s reward is that we can experience it AS we live it. Many people focus on career and making money, but they make sacrifices to get there. Some sacrifice time spent with friends and family. Some sacrifice relationships. Some even sacrifice their humanity. And in the end, these people missed out on actually living.”
