JollySipper Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 We can't talk politics or religion, but there's nothing stopping a philosophy topic. A couple of ideals that I try to carry with me thru my day-to-day........... The glass being half-full or half-empty depends on whether you are filling that glass or emptying it out................ Freedom is just that, FREE! Yours shouldn't cost me anything, and mine shouldn't cost you................... So share with us some mindset, I want inside your head!
bobthehobbyguy Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Life is like a poker game. You gotta play the hand you are dealt. And how you do will depend on how you play those cards.
Lunajammer Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 1. Only risk as much as you're willing to lose.2. Less is more.
Snake45 Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 From Wanda Sykes: "Don't start none, won't BE none!" Words to live by.
Petetrucker07 Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 The less I know about some things, the better I'll be.I've come to the conclusion, and this brutally honest and a bit cold.... on the road, people are gonna do stupid things, just don't do it in front me and ruin my day.Lead, follow or get out the way.I'd rather die on my feet, than live on my knees.Never back down from what you know is right.Money can't buy happinesd, but it sure points you in the right direction.
Tom Geiger Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Always, but always root for the under dog!If you tell me you can't do something, I'll have to take you for your word. Then I'll go find someone who can!
Snake45 Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 If you tell me you can't do something, I'll have to take you for your word. Then I'll go find someone who can! You reminded me of one somewhat similar: "Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're probably right."This one's from General Patton. I've seen several variations in the exact wording, but the gist of it goes more less like: "Almost any reasonably good plan, executed right now, vigorously, is infinitely preferable to the perfect plan executed sometime next week."
CometMan Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 "Some people see things that are and ask why. I see things that never were and ask, why not?"
oldnslow Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 in general , people are stupid , lazy and self centered , act accordingly.
mikemodeler Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 When you're dumb, you suffer. That was a saying a friend and I came up with, kind of a take off from the John Wayne statement about life. My late mother liked to say "Life is what you make it son"
Snake45 Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 in general , people are stupid , lazy and self centered , act accordingly.You reminded me of one that's quite well known in law enforcement circles: "Be polite, be courteous, be professional. And have a plan to kill everybody you meet."
JollySipper Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 When you're dumb, you suffer.My late mother liked to say "Life is what you make it son"or If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough! The quote from your Mom is cool...............
slusher Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Never follow the crowd, be your own man.If you live by the sword you will die by itYou can make your bed hard or make it a little softer but your going to be the one lying in it.
Snake45 Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Another one from General Patton: "Never tell people how to do something. Tell them what you want done and let them surprise you with their ingenuity."

Snake45 Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 "You wanna make God laugh? Tell him about your future plans".Live today, and enjoy it.Similarly:"Life is what happens while you're making plans"--Some song I can't remember offhand."No plan survives first contact with the enemy."--I've seen it attributed to several famous generals. "Everybody's got a plan till they get punched in the mouth." --Mike Tyson.
