someone, they express it, and then it is finished. They can still play with that person the
following day.” ― Dalai Lama

analysis.” – Dalai Lama

Far better, surely, to use our short time here in living a meaningful life, enriched by our sense of
connection with others and being of service to them.” – Dalai Lama XIV

their own happiness or satisfaction” ― Dalai Lama

40. “Compassion is not religious business, it is human business, it is not luxury, it is essential for
our own peace and mental stability, it is essential for human survival.” – Dalai Lama

41. “The purpose of all the major religious traditions is not to construct big temples on the
outside, but to create temples of goodness and compassion inside, in our hearts.” ― Dalai Lama

42. “One problem with our current society is that we have an attitude towards education as if it
is there to simply make you more clever, make you more ingenious… Even though our society
does not emphasize this, the most important use of knowledge and education is to help us
understand the importance of engaging in more wholesome actions and bringing about
discipline within our minds. The proper utilization of our intelligence and knowledge is to effect
changes from within to develop a good heart.” – Dalai Lama

43. “The creatures that inhabit this earth-be they human beings or animals-are here to

bring about the greatest degree of happiness.” – Dalai Lama

47. “The more you are motivated by Love, The more Fearless & Free your action will be.” ― Dalai

If you have willpower, then you can change anything. It is usually said that you are your own
master.” ― Dalai Lama

49. “Neither a space station nor an enlightened mind can be realized in a day.” – Dalai Lama
50th Dalai Lama Quote – “Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An
old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful
friend – or a meaningful day.” ― Dalai Lama

51. “Hard times build determination and inner strength. Through them we can also come to
appreciate the uselessness of anger. Instead of getting angry nurture a deep caring and respect
for troublemakers because by creating such trying circumstances they provide us with invaluable
opportunities to practice tolerance and patience.” ― Dalai Lama

52. “Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.” ― Dalai Lama

53. “To conquer oneself is a greater victory than to conquer thousands in a battle.” – Dalai Lama

56. “The way to change others’ minds is with affection, and not anger.”
― Dalai Lama

consider why this is happening to YOU.”

each other and with nature. This is not just a dream, but a necessity.” ― Dalai Lama

62. “Anger or hatred is like a fisherman’s hook. It is very important for us to ensure that we are
not caught by it.” – Dalai Lama

63. “Irrespective of whether we are believers or agnostics, whether we believe in God or karma,
moral ethics is a code which everyone is able to pursue.” ― Dalai Lama

64. “Happiness doesn’t always come from a pursuit. Sometimes it comes when we least expect
it.” – Dalai Lama

65. “When we are motivated by compassion and wisdom, the results of our actions benefit
everyone, not just our individual selves or some immediate convenience. When we are able to
recognize and forgive ignorant actions of the past, we gain strength to constructively solve the
problems of the present.” ― Dalai Lama

Lama

deep sense of peace and tranquility…without this inner peace, no matter how comfortable your
life is materially, you may still be worried, disturbed, or unhappy because of circumstances.” ―
Dalai Lama

74. “You must not hate those who do wrong or harmful things; but with compassion, you must
do what you can to stop them — for they are harming themselves, as well as those who suffer
from their actions.” – Dalai Lama
75th Dalai Lama Quote – “Those who have little interest in spirituality shouldn’t think that
human inner values don’t apply to you. The inner peace of an alert and calm mind are the source
of real happiness and good health. Our human intelligence tells us which of our emotions are
positive and helpful and which are damaging and to be restrained or avoided.” – Dalai Lama

76. “Anger is the ultimate destroyer of your own peace of mind” – Dalai Lama

77. “There is only one important point you must keep in your mind and let it be your guide. No
matter what people call you, you are just who you are. Keep to this truth. You must ask yourself
how is it you want to live your life. We live and we die, this is the truth that we can only face
alone. No one can help us, not even the Buddha. So consider carefully, what prevents you from
living the way you want to live your life?” ― Dalai Lama

content.” – Dalai Lama XIV

both for oneself and others.” ― Dalai Lama

84. “Our ancient experience confirms at every point that everything is linked together,
everything is inseparable.” ― Dalai Lama

85. “What surprises me most is “Man”, because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future
that he doesn’t enjoy the present; The result being he doesn’t live in the present or the future;
He lives as if he’s never going to die, and then he dies having never really lived.” – Dalai Lama

86. “Love and Compassion are the true religions to me. But to develop this, we do not need to
believe in any religion.” ― Dalai Lama

87. “Someone else’s action should not determine your response.” – Dalai Lama

88. “When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways–either by losing hope and
falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength.” ― Dalai
Lama

89. “Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It
helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with
any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal source of success in life. Since we are not solely
material creatures, it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external development
alone. The key is to develop inner peace.” – Dalai Lama

90. “I believe compassion to be one of the few things we can practice that will bring immediate
and long-term happiness to our lives. I’m not talking about the short-term gratification of
pleasures like sex, drugs or gambling (though I’m not knocking them), but something that will
bring true and lasting happiness. The kind that sticks.” ― Dalai Lama

91. “My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.” ― Dalai Lama

92. “As people alive today, we must consider future generations: a clean environment is a human
right like any other. It is therefore part of our responsibility toward others to ensure that the
world we pass on is as healthy, if not healthier, than we found it.” – Dalai Lama

93. “We begin from the recognition that all beings cherish happiness and do not want suffering.
It then becomes both morally wrong and pragmatically unwise to pursue only one’s own
happiness oblivious to the feelings and aspirations of all others who surround us as members of
the same human family. The wiser course is to think of others when pursuing our own
happiness.” – Dalai Lama

94. “The topic of compassion is not at all religious business; it is important to know it is human
business, it is a question of human survival.” – Dalai Lama

95. “Whether one is rich or poor, educated or illiterate, religious or non-believing, man or
woman, black, white, or brown, we are all the same. Physically, emotionally, and mentally, we
are all equal. We all share basic needs for food, shelter, safety, and love. We all aspire to
happiness and we all shun suffering. Each of us has hopes, worries, fears, and dreams. Each of us
wants the best for our family and loved ones. We all experience pain when we suffer loss and joy
when we achieve what we seek. On this fundamental level, religion, ethnicity, culture, and
language make no difference.” – Dalai Lama

96. “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice
compassion.” ― Dalai Lama

97. “Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something, and sometimes one
creates as significant an impression by remaining silent.” – Dalai Lama

98. “Although you may not always be able to avoid difficult situations,you can modify the extent
to which you can suffer by how you choose to respond to the situation.” – Dalai Lama

99. “We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human
affection.” ― Dalai Lama
100th Dalai Lama Quote “When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes
others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.” –
Dalai Lama

outcome.” – Michael B. Jordan

4. “Sometimes you’re overthinking, you convince yourself to get out of it and you’re like, ‘ah I
shoulda did that!’ You can’t live life with regrets. Sometimes you just gotta indulge. But in the
same breath, you gotta have restraint and self-control too.” – Michael B. Jordan

5. “Be collaborative. I’ve had some of my best experiences with directors who were able to sit
down and have a conversation and ask me what I thought.” – Michael B. Jordan

6. “I want people to leave the theatre and think, ‘How can I be a better person?’ That’s the only

9. “You can only fool reality until the truth comes knocking on your door.” – Michael B. Jordan

their humanity? Why can’t we see the humanity in people that are distant from us?” – Michael
B. Jordan

11. “Sometimes family doesn’t always consist of your relatives or by blood. Sometimes your best
friends can feel more like family than your cousins. I think everybody kind of has that same
feeling. When you go through an accident together, when you go through a traumatic event,
sometimes that brings you closer together.” – Michael B. Jordan

6 Lessons You Can Learn from The King of the Jungle

Success Advice
The Answer Is This: Give It Away For Free.

Published 2 hours ago

on Mar 1, 2018

By Tim Denning

I have no payment walls on my website.

You can message me for free 24/7.
There is no 30-day course with a one-time special offer.
My eBook is free. You don’t even need to leave your email address.

That last one is important and I want to highlight it. Many people give away a free eBook to
capture email addresses and subscribers. I’d like to do that too but in the end, I don’t want to
force or trick people to do it.

My web developer asked me an interesting question the other day:

“Tim, do you want to make your free eBook signup form require a valid email address?”

My answer: “No way man.”

“Give the eBook to them even if they give a fake email. In fact, give them the eBook even if they
enter no email address and give me nothing.”

The most common question I get.

I get this series of questions all the time and they are almost all saying the same thing.

“How do I increase the revenue of my business?”

“How do I build a following?”
“How do I connect with people who have influence?”
“How do I be successful?”

My answer always starts with this: give it all away for free.

None of those questions can be answered unless you do something, do it well, and start off by
giving it away for free.

“Once people respect you and you’re adding value to the world, then you can easily monetize
that in an ethical way that doesn’t compromise your values”

The problem is this: it’s all about you.

The reason people ask me these questions above is because it’s about what they want and it’s
about themselves. Giving it all away for free is about doing something for someone else without
expecting anything in return.

“If all you care about is yourself then success, influence, a business or whatever else you crave
will never bloody happen”

Quit focusing on you. Tough love is what I do. Tough love baby.

Find a way to do something valuable and then give it away for free.

These four questions people ask me about getting what they want all start with giving it away for
free. My answer is almost always going to be this.

Let’s practice the strategy one more time:

Step One: Do something valuable for someone other than yourself
Step Two: Give it away for free
Step Three: Repeat the first two steps
Step Four: You’ll get the desired result if you keep doing it

That’s the big strategy people. The way you get what you want is to give something that’s
valuable away for free. It’s the seed to everything. It’s how you know what worked and what
didn’t. It’s how you find your fans, followers and future customers.

Your promise of free must be genuine.

There’s a lot of BS on the internet, let’s face it.

That’s why to stand out and get what you want, you don’t just have to give people what they
want, you have to be also genuine about it.

The moment you “fake it” or pretend, or be incongruent with yourself, all of your hard work
comes undone. If you’re serious about following my advice, then be real and genuine about it.

Don’t mislead people.

Don’t say something you don’t mean.

If you’re not ready to go free, then stop right now.

The whole “free thang” may not be your cup of hot chocolate and I get it. If that’s the case,
you’re not ready perhaps. Achieving your goals and getting what you want takes huge amounts
of:

– Personal development
– Emotion
– Ability to connect with humans on a deep level

This stuff doesn’t happen overnight, so there’s a chance you’re not ready. That’s okay. Let’s not
have a cry about it. Instead, practice your craft and work on yourself.

You’ll eventually get to a stage where the “give it away for free” idea makes perfect sense.

There is no shortcut.

Giving stuff away for free is also not a shortcut.

Like I’ve said a hundred times: There is no shortcut!

Whether you choose my strategy of free or not, it’s going to take a very long-time amigo to do
anything that makes a huge impact. Heck, I’ve still got a very long way to go myself!

That’s why I encourage you to forget the shortcuts and focus on doing the one thing that makes
you fulfilled and achieves the purpose (or insert other cliché self-improvement word to describe
youe why) you have set for your life.

Again, there’s no overnight success.

Give it all away for free. Do it.

B. Jordan
