I keep going because I doubt myself. It drives me to be better. I've learned that the mastery of self-doubt is the key to success. It's like being animated by the love of a woman - the need to be worthy of her.
Part of being an actor is almost self-hypnosis during those brief moments when the cameras are rolling. You want to actually believe you're Chris Gardner or Muhammad Ali.
We mostly do self tours but a guided hike is nice when we aren't familiar with the area.
At that age, you want to be the best. It builds their self-esteem and keeps them on a positive track. We provide any assistance we can.
You should sub a player out when you see a player not going full-speed or playing selfish basketball.
And that's where the whole trouble is. We're too much alike to understand each other because we don't even understand our own selves.
God will allow us to follow self-help, self-improvement programs until we have tried them all, until we finally come to the honest confession, ‘I can't do it. I can't be righteous in my own strength!’ It is then, when we admit our utter powerlessness, that we find hope. For it is then when the Lord intervenes to do a work that we could not do for ourselves.
There are many selfish people who are extremely original, then they take those pure ideas and use them to raise themselves up, that is an insincere move.
How selfish soever man may be supposed, there are evidently some principles in his nature, which interest him in the fortune of others, and render their happiness necessary to him, though he derives nothing from it, except the pleasure of seeing it.
To feel much for others and little for ourselves; to restrain our selfishness and exercise our benevolent affections, constitute the perfection of human nature.
It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from regard to their own interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities but of their advantages. Nobody but a beggar chooses to depend chiefly upon the benevolence of his fellow citizens.
These unrealistic representations may powerfully influence young children of both genders because their concepts of self are still developing ? and because young children are likely to own and view movies again and again.
The self is too small an object for perpetual enthusiasm.
Religion is the call to confront reality; to master the self.
