Hello everyone.
I came across this quote recently and loved it, so thought I'd share. It's a reminder to not add any weight to any voices around you that try to bring you down or you feel hold you back in any way. Somewhere along the way people can learn that the external voices are more valid or important or more powerful than their own. They lose awareness of their own intelligence and their ability to create their own beliefs, rather than their beliefs being a by-product of their environment and the people around them.
You don't have to put anyone else's thoughts or voice above your own. As long as you are not hurting anyone, you have the ability to be in charge of your own thoughts, and where your attention goes.
Here is the quote, which of course applies to "her" as well as "his".
“A genius is simply one who has taken full possession of his own mind and directed it toward objectives of his own choosing, without permitting outside influences to discourage or mislead him.”
