At first perfectionists can’t get comfortable with this. They feel that the opposite of doing it perfectly is doing it wrong. Not the case. It’s hard for us to get past that too. We want to keep working on it, working on it, working on it, to get it just right before showing a client for their feedback.
Getting it with 95% of everyone “loving it” right now is so much better than at 100% and the deadline and the opportunity is long past.

Oprah’s success has not come easily, but rather as the result of a number of crucial factors:
“I always knew I’d be a millionaire by age thirty-two. In fact, I am going to be the richest black woman in America. The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you’re willing to work. If you believe you can only go so far, it is an obstacle.
Be quiet. Part of your responsibility is to honour the quiet inside yourself so you can hear the call. Take five minutes to centre yourself in the morning…set your intention every day…if you don’t have five minutes, you don’t deserve to have the life of your dreams. Follow your instincts. That’s where true wisdom manifests itself.
You get in life what you have the courage to ask for. Always continue the climb. Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don’t fight them. Just find a different way to stand. You can take from every experience what it has to offer you. And you cannot be defeated if you just keep taking one breath followed by another.
Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you’re going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and by maintaining focus. You are built not to shrink down to less but to blossom into more. The right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it.
Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you. I said I knew how to edit when I didn’t. I said I knew how to report on stories. When I went to my first city council meeting, I wasn’t quite sure of what to do, but I told the news director that I did.
It’s not just about being able to write a check. It’s being able to touch somebody’s life. Making other people happy is what brings me happiness. I have a blessed life, and I have always shared my life’s gifts with others. I will continue to use my voice and my life as a catalyst for encouraging people to help make a difference in the lives of others.
What I know is, is that if you do work that you love, and work that fulfills you, the rest will come. And, I truly believe, that the reason I’ve been able to be so financially successful is because my focus has never, ever for one minute been money.
You can be pursuing a profession because your parents say it’s the best thing. You can be pursuing a profession because you think you will make a lot of money. You can be pursuing a profession because you think you are going to get a lot of attention. None of that will do you any good if you are not being honest with yourself.
You become what you believe. You are where you are today in your life based on everything you have believed. I don’t believe in coincidences.
I don’t care about being bigger, because I’m already bigger than I ever expected to be. My constant focus is on being better. Should I be doing multimedia video production? Or seminars on the Internet? How can I do what I’m already doing in a more forceful way?”
I say :
Let’s have a war….
We need third world war.
We are too many.
You all know it has allready started. Hide it no more!
Give guns to the “ungifted”…. the queers….so they can all go ahead and die!

Well it’s true you’re a bit like me
But you’re a lot like you
And I’m not like you
And you’re not like me
But I’m the same as you
And you’re the same as me
And you’re a lot like you
But you’re a bit like me
And you’re a bit like me
But you’re a lot like you
And I’m not like you
And you’re not like me
And you’re a bit like me
But you’re a lot like you
I’ll tell you what I’ll do, I’ll listen
