Don't chase people. Be yourself, do your own

thing and work hard. The right people - the ones

who really belong in your life - will come to you.

Will Smith

Anyone who has never made a mistake

has never tried anything new.

Albert Einstein

Learning is the beginning of wealth.

Searching and learning is where the miracle

to accomplish any goal that you set for yourself.

These means there are no limits

on what you can be, have or do.

A Feminine Impression - 25 Ways I've Changed Since 25

Education is not the learning of facts,

but training of the mind to think.

more honorable, but more useful

than a life spent doing nothing.

we learn from reflecting on experience.

John Dewey

Try to learn something about everything

and everything about something.

Thomas Huxley

The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die.

As well the minds which are prevented from

changing their opinions; they cease to be mind.

1. There will always be people that don't like us and that's OK.

2. If a man ghosts you, he's not even a candidate.

3. Get therapy.

4. Be careful who you trust. Those who speak ill of others in your presence, speak ill of you in your absence.

5. Your look is half of your package, but only half. Your behavior and personality is what defines you. Confidence, elegance, femininity and authenticity is what makes a woman irresistible.

6. Elegance is an important tool to gain the respect of others. It's about self-respect and respect for others.

7. Don't stress about finding a man. Stress is a blocker. Work on yourself.

1. Change the narrative.

2. Embrace discomfort.

3. Don't compare yourself to others.

The only person with whom you have to

compare yourself is you in the past.

Sigmund Freud

Respect life and life will respect you.

Love life and love will shower

blessings on you.

Rajneesh

Once you stop learning you start dying.

Albert Einstein

Loving yourself is part of loving God.

Take care of the temple that houses your soul.

A well maintained body allows

the soul to live it's purpose fully.

 A woman is the full circle.

Within her is the power to create,

nurture and transform.

Diane Mariechild

Modern Warrior

Suffering is suffering, murder is murder

and the more helpless the victim,

the more horrific the crime.

Damien Mander

I am not a trinket

In a world of boundless opportunities

for amusement, it's detestable that anyone

would choose to get thrills from killing

others who ask for nothing from life

but the chance to remain alive.

Roger Moore

My strength needs no victims.

My strength is my compassion.

Patrik Baboumian

Jo Frederiks

Besides love and sympathy, animals exhibit

other qualities connected with the social

instincts which in us would be called moral.

Charles Darwin

If people were superior to animals,

they would take good care of them.

Winnie the Pooh

In whom there is no sympathy for living beings:

know him as an outcast.

Buddha

We cannot have peace among men whose hearts

delight in killing any living creature. By every

act that glorifies or even tolerates such

moronic delight in killing, we set back

the progress of humanity.

Rachel Carson

At his best, man is the noblest of all animals;

separated from law and justice

he is the worst.

Aristotle

🌍 Know Your Why 💚

He who has a why to live for

can bear almost any how.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Eating for me is how you proclaim your beliefs

three times a day. Three times a day I remind

myself that I value life and I do not want to

cause pain to or kill other living beings.

That is why I eat the way I do.

Nathalie Portman

There comes a time when one must take

a position that is neither safe, nor popular,

but he must take it because conscience

tells him it is right.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Nothing will benefit human health and

increase the chances for survival of life on Earth

as much as the evolution to a vegan diet.

If the whole world adopts veganism,

it can change the destiny of humankind.

Albert Einstein

Be nice to the environment.

Be nice to animals.

Be nice to people.

If you do that, you will leave

a mark on the world.

Enock Maregesi

Once I learned about how animals are treated

in our industrial food system, I didn't

want any part of it.

Billie Eilish

I show my love for animals by not eating them

or participating in any business that profits

directly from their exploitation.

Mayim Bialik

We change the world not by what we say or do

but as a consequence of what we have become.

David R. Hawkins

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

My own view is that being vegan is not an end

 in itself, but a means towards reducing both

human and animal suffering and leaving

a habitable planet to future generations.

Peter Singer

If people understood that for two minutes

of pleasure, there is a lifetime of suffering.

Khaled bin Alwaleed

If you don't have it in your heart to help animals,

then just leave them alone and do no harm.

Katie Cleary

This is why I am vegan;

I don't support the barbaric treatment

and slaughtering of millions of animals.

I don't support this industry.

Lewis Hamilton

When people ask me why I don't eat animal

products I say, 'Because they are unhealthy

and they are the product of a violent and

inhumane industry.'

Casey Affleck

I feel great after every meal, and I know that

no animals are getting hurt in the process.

Travis Barker

If you look at the climate crisis or the violence 

of our food system and feel helpless, thinking 

'I wish there was something I could do'

- you can. Right now.

Joaquin Phoenix

Being vegan for me is about trying to live a life

where I'm not contributing to the cruelty

in the world.

Jessica Chastain

Animals in Entertainment

Animals are not ours to eat, wear,

experiment on, use for entertainment

or for any exploitative purpose.

Sharon Gannon

Jo Frederiks

Tradition will accustom people to any atrocity.

George Bernard Shaw

God loved the birds and invented trees.

Man loved the birds and invented cages.

Jacques Deval

It's clear to anyone with a brain and an ounce

of compassion that marine parks are nothing

more than concrete prisons.

Roger Moore

A good heart will refuse the happiness

built on the misfortune of others.

Saadie

What an amount of suffering and cruel

punishment the poor creatures have to

endure in order to give a few moments

of pleasure to men devoid of thought.

Albert Schweitzer

We know we cannot be kind to animals

until we stop exploiting them -

exploiting animals in the name of science,

exploiting animals in the name of sport,

exploiting animals in the name of fashion,

and yes, exploiting animals in the name of food.

César Chávez

What's Wrong with Eggs? 🐣

Being vegetarian here also means that we do not

consume dairy and egg products, because they

are products of the meat industry. If we stop

consuming, they will stop producing. Only

collective awakening can create enough

determination for action.

Thich Nhat Hanh

We're exploiting female bodies and abusing the

magic of female animals to create eggs and milk.

Nathalie Portman

Our prime purpose in this life is to help

others. And if you can't help them,

at least don't hurt them.

Dalai Lama

The animals of the world exist for their own

reasons. They were not made for humans

any more than black people were made

for white, or women created for men.

Alice Walker

Jo Frederiks

We've objectified certain animals so much that

we refer to them as 'livestock'. 'Stock' that just

so happens to be alive. An inconvenience

that they were even alive to begin with.

Ed Winters

God's Creatures 🐄🐑🦃🐓🐠🐖

Earth was created for all of us, not some of us.

Anthony Douglas Williams

It may be suggested by some books that it is not

a sin to kill an animal, but it is written in our

own hearts - more clearly than in any book -

that we should take pity on animals

in the same way as we do on humans.

Leo Tolstoy

For if animals are God's creatures, we have no

absolute rights over them, only the duty to look

after them as God would look after them.

To stand with Jesus is to reject our view of

ourselves as gods and lords of creation. We are

to honor life for the sake of the Lord of the life.

Andrew Linzey

We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation,

and have treated our distant cousins in fur

and feathers so badly that beyond doubt,

if they were able to formulate a religion,

they would depict the Devil in human form.

William Ralph Inge

The Gods created certain kinds of beings

to replenish our bodies; they are the trees

and the plants and the seeds.

Plato

Why should man expect his prayer for mercy

to be heard by what is above him when he

shows no mercy to those under his power?

Pierre Troubetzkoy

Where love is, there God is also.

Mahatma Gandhi

There is no religion without love, and people may

talk as much as they like about their religion,

but if it does not teach them to be kind

to man and animals, it is all a sham.

Anna Sewell

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Mahatma Gandhi

The basis of all animal rights should be

the Golden Rule: we should treat them as we

would wish them to treat us, were any

other species in our dominant position.

Christine Stevens

It ill becomes us to invoke in our daily prayers

the blessing of God, the Compassionate,

if we in turn will not practice elemantary

compassion toward our fellow creatures.

Mahatma Gandhi

No God would be a slave master,

a torturer and a killer of his animals, his babies.

If he was, then he would not be God.

He would be the Devil.

Gary Yourofsky

Those who are merciful will be shown mercy

by the Most Merciful. Be merciful to those

on the earth and the One in the heavens

will have mercy on you.

Mishkat al-Masabih: Book 6, Chapter 7, 8:178

My religion is based on truth and non-violence.

Truth is my God. Non-violence is

the means of realising him.

Mahatma Gandhi

Man worships an invisible God

and destroys a visible Nature.

Unaware that this Nature he's destroying

is this God he's worshiping.

Hubert Reeves

Be kind to all creatures.

This is the true religion.

Buddha

Ajar Setiadi

The Power of Sanctuary

The day the power of love

overrules the love of power,

the world will know peace.

Mahatma Gandhi

If we could live happy and healthy lives

without harming others, why wouldn't we?

Pam Ahern

Kindness, I discovered, is everything in life.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

Our fate is inextricably linked to the health and

resilience of the earth and our fellow earthlings,

and when these are harmed and made to suffer,

so are we.

Gene Baur

Power is actualized only where word

and deed have not parted company,

where words are not empty and deeds

not brutal, where words are not used

to veil intentions but to disclose realities,

and deeds are not used to violate and

destroy but to establish relations

and create new realities.

Hannah Arendt

Man can no longer live for himself alone.

We must realize that all life is valuable

and that we are united to all life.

Albert Schweitzer

We can judge the heart of a man

by his treatment of animals.

Immanuel Kant

In compassion lies the world's true strength.

Buddha

I believe that the reson of life is for

each of us simply to grow in love.

Leo Tolstoy

A truth cannot be reached in scripture,

a truth has to be lived in

the innermost temple of your being.

Osho

Just how destructive does a culinary preference

have to be before we decide to eat something else?

If contributing to the suffering of billions of

animals that live miserable lives and, quite often,

die in horrific ways isn't motivating,

what would be?

If being the number one contributor to the most

serious threat facing the planet isn't enough,

what is? And if you are tempted to put off

these questions of your conscience,

to say not now, then when?

Jonathan Safran Foer

The heart of a good man is the sanctuary

of God in this world.

Suzanne Curchod

The animals of the world exist

for their own reasons.

They were not made for humans

any more than black people

were made for white,

or women created for men.

Alice Walker

All were happy - birds, insects and children.

But grown-up people never left off cheating and

tormenting themselves and one another. It was

not this spring morning which they considered

sacred and important, not the beauty of God's

world, given to all creatures to enjoy -

a beauty which inclines the heart to peace,

to harmony and to love. No, what they

considered sacred were their own devices

for wielding power over each other.

Leo Tolstoy

Remember, the entrance door

to the sanctuary is inside you.

Rumi

Minimalism

Simplify your life, for in doing so, you make

room for clarity and purpose. By removing

anything unnecessary, you create space for

what truly matters.

Epictetus

The first step in crafting the life you want

is to get rid of everything you don't.

Joshua Becker

1. Work (essentialism)

2. Personal finances (awareness, goals)

3. Time (daily routines)

4. Possessions (declutter)

5. Meals (plan)

6. Screen time (limit)

7. Relationships (evaluate, decrease)

8. Mental habits (journal, exercise)

Essentialism is not about how to get more things

done. It's about how to get the right things done.

It is about making the wisest possible investment

of your time and energy in order to operate

at our highest point of contribution

by doing only what is essential.

Greg McKeown

1. Set upp barriers.

2. 30 day detox.

3. Re-evaluate your priorities.

Digital minimalism is a philosophy

of technology use in which you focus

your online time on a small number of

carefully selected and optimized activites that

strongly support things you value and then

happily miss out on everything else.

Cal Newport

- Wish list.

- Test of time.

- Use what you have.

Every time you spend money you're casting

a vote for the kind of world you want.

Anna Lappé

- Study your habits.

- Know your purpose.

- Remove temptations.

- How will you measure progress?

Rules

- Check ethical brands, local businesses, thrift first!

- Investments are OK.

Live simply so that others may simply live.

Mahatma Gandhi

Make ethical choices in what you buy, do and

watch. In a consumer-driven society our

individual choices, used collectively for

the good of animals, can change

the world faster than laws.

Marc Bekoff

Each one of us makes a difference every day

by the choices we make. When billions start

making ethical decisions, we can put

the world on the right track.

Jane Goodall

Truth, like gold, is to be obtained

not by its growth, but by washing away

from it all that is not gold.

Leo Tolstoy

1. Other people's validation.

2. Things that don't align with who I am.

3. Scarcity mindset.

4. Attachment to the past.

You don't improve your life by doing more.

You improve it by doing less

of what doesn't matter.

Cory Allen

- Narrow your focus.

- Create a strong support system.

- Eliminate and simplify based on your values.

- Let go of control and expectations.

- Reset your shopping habit.

- Simplify. Perfect the basics.

- Practice gratitude.

2. You are good at prioritizing.

3. You have boundaries.

4. You are not influenced by marketing.

5. You don't compare your life to others.

6. You spend on meaningful purchases.

7. You don't rely on material things for happiness.

8. You feel like you're in control of your life.

Most of what we say and do is not essential.

If you can eliminate it, you'll have more time,

and more tranquility. Ask yourself at every

moment, 'Is this necessary?'

Marcus Aurelius

- Start with your physical space.

- What is your version of a 'simple life'?

- How will you redirect your resources?

- What are the habits and mindset to sustain this lifestyle?

- What can you control vs. let go?

Be a curator of your life. Slowly cut things out

until you're left only with what you love,

with what's necessary, with what

makes you happy.
