You may not know in your mind where you are going, but you know it by doing.

Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life
Nassim Nicholas Taleb


Look out for your thoughts, for they will become your words.
Look out for your words, for they will become your actions.
Look out for your actions, for they will become your habits.
Look out for your habits, for they will become your character.
Look out for your character, for they will become your fate.



Don’t think. Act. We can always revise and revisit once we’ve acted. But we can accomplish nothing until we act.

Steven Pressfield – Do the Work



L’excellence est un art que l’on n’atteint que par l’exercice constant. Nous sommes ce que nous faisons de manière répétée. L’excellence n’est donc pas une action mais une habitude.


Act, reflect. Act, reflect. NEVER act and reflect at the same time.

Steven Pressfield – Do the work


The (Complete) Formula for Getting Lucky:
Preparation (personal growth)

+ Opportunity (a good thing coming your way)
+ Action (doing something about it)
= Luck

Darren Hardy – The Compound Effect


You already know all that you need to succeed. You don’t need to learn anything more. If all we needed was more information, everyone with an Internet connection would live in a mansion, have abs of steel, and be blissfully happy.

Darren Hardy


Où voyez-vous qu’il y ait lieu de désespérer ? Le passé est irréparable, mais le présent vous est fourni comme matériaux en vrac aux pieds du bâtisseur et c’est à vous d’en forger l’avenir.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry – Citadelle


Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.
