The greatest killer of great accomplishments is contentment with little and not hunger for more. When you have something and you are satisfied with it, it kills your desire to thirst for more, and no one can have access to more if you are not pursuing it. Pursuing after more would help in increasing your capacity for more.

The reason why we are contented with what we have is because our desires has been met. You need to stretch your desires while craving for more.

If ceiling is your ultimate goal, when you rich it, set another goal

The day you stop pursuing things, that's the day you start living irrelevantly and start dying as a result. I'm not teaching us the crooked ways to get things done, but whatever you have and satisfied with would kill your initiative to crave for more.

Their is always something better than what you have, if you don't desire them, you can't have them. Use every achievements of your life as a starting point for other accomplishments.

You are not in competition with anybody but yourself, comparing yourself with anybody can be as frustrated as frustration itself. Don't move by anybody's standard, only work with yours. When you are measuring your life against those whom you are better than, you lack the strength to keep going, while comparing yourself with those ahead of you would make you to look like an idiot and take your attention away from whatever you have accomplished in life.

Having yourself as the ultimate standard for your life would give you the access to be able to compare and contrast, only you know where you are coming from, only you know where you are and only you can determine where you are going in life. So, use yourself as the only motivation to your goal would help you in moving by your own pace and not of any one else

While it is not bad to have people we are looking up to, it would be so terrible to want to imitate them while you forget about the who that you are.

Imitation is limitation, for it do not allow you to see beyond the standard you are copying
