8 Real Quotes with Deep Life Lessons I Wish I Read Earlier

Powerful Quotes are one of your greatest assets

because they can strengthen your mindset

and upgrade your perspective on life.

They have the power to make your life better or worse.

Your greatest asset is your mind,

as it’s your greatest weapon when facing your battles.

We grow up with many problems and issues,

but we also grow through them.

Here are the 8 powerful quotes that might change your life forever:

1. Everyone must choose one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret.

This is a quote by Jim Rohn, an entrepreneur and motivational speaker.

There is no success without sacrifice.

We have to pay the price to get what we want.

The pain of being disciplined for years is hard,

and the pain of regretting your whole life is hard, too.

But the pain of regret is the hardest because you carry it your whole life.

Discipline is hard, too, but there’s no victory without pain.

2. No amount of anxiety makes any difference to anything that is going to happen.

Quote by Alan Watts.

Some things are destined to happen no matter what you do.

Triggering your anxiety by worrying

and thinking about the future will never change it.

The right thing to do is to accept things as they are.

You can’t control everything in life,

but you can choose what to focus on controlling.

3. Almost nothing material is needed for a happy life, for he who has understood existence.

Quote by Marcus Aurelius.

We need materials to make our lives easier and better,

but not for a happy life, just as we need money for a better quality of life.

With money, you can have a better home, food, and standard of living.

This contributes to your joy in life.

But when it comes to happiness,

it has nothing to do with how content you are now,

which can confuse many people.

Most people think of being content

with themselves only after they own materials.

But most people are greedy, which makes the process hard.

You can be content with who you are, wherever you are.

4. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

Quote by Epicurus.

Practicing gratitude and knowing the value

of what you have is important in life.

The problem is that most people don’t value what they have in life.

They fail to realize that what they have is worth

more than what they don’t have.

5. We suffer more in imagination than in reality.

Quote by Seneca. This is one of my favorite quotes of all time.

We suffer much by thinking about problems that may never happen.

Over-thinkers can relate to this quote a lot.

6. Worrying is like paying a debt you don’t owe.

Quote by Mark Twain.

You waste a lot of time worrying about a future you can’t change.

You are paying for something that isn’t yours.

You can’t precisely know what exactly will happen in the future.

7. It may seem difficult at first, but all things are difficult at first.

Quote by Miyamoto Musashi.

The first step is always the hardest.

Whether you are learning a new language skill,

it will be so difficult that you may think about quitting.

But here’s this quote to calm you down

and tell you that every beginning is difficult.

8. No man is free who cannot control himself.

Quote by Pythagoras.

If you don’t control your desires, emotions, and reactions,

they will always control you.
