If you know them, they’ll surely guide your life! Important words to engrave in your heart (31–40)
Trust in others, but trust yourself a hundred times more.Osamu Tezuka
Osamu Tezuka: "Trust others, but trust yourself a hundred times more." #SelfReliance #Growth #Success
From the quote, “Trust people, but trust yourself a hundred times more,” we can quite literally learn the importance of believing.
It’s understandable to feel suspicious of others, but there will likely be many moments in life when nothing begins or moves forward unless you choose to trust.
And more than that, unless you trust yourself, you can’t face forward and move ahead.
This message teaches a mindset essential for progress—one that’s closely tied to seeing things in a positive light.
It’s never too late to set your aspirations.Stanley Baldwin
It’s never too late to set your ambition.
Stanley Baldwin, a British businessman who served as a Conservative politician and held multiple ministerial posts, served as prime minister three times in 1923.
His famous quote, “It is never too late to be what you might have been,” likely resonates all the more with those who have grown older.
Society often prizes youthful energy, and it’s not uncommon to be written off as no longer useful once you pass a certain age.
Yet he reminds us that it’s always the right time in life to set an aspiration.
Younger generations might not fully grasp this yet, but it’s a message I’d like to offer as words of encouragement for the day when it will make sense to them.
Nothing makes you regret more deeply than indecision.René Descartes
René Descartes, the French mathematician whose statement “I think, therefore I am,” proposed in his own writings, is counted among the most famous propositions in the history of philosophy.
His maxim “Nothing is more conducive to regret than indecision” teaches the importance of making decisions in life.
If you take on a challenge and fail, you may feel regret, but you can reflect on it and use the experience next time.
However, if you cannot bring yourself to decide to take on the challenge, nothing happens—there is nothing to reflect on, only the regret of inaction remains, and that cannot be undone.
This is a message worth keeping as a personal motto to help reduce regrets in life.
To mature, one must take the long way around.Takeshi Kaikō
The writer Ken Kaikō, who left behind a wide range of works—from novels based on his reporting experiences during the Vietnam War to essays about his hobby of fishing—once said, “To mature, one must take the long way around.” It’s a message that seems to call a halt to the modern trend of overvaluing youth.
Companies seek immediate contributors, and the arts are trending younger, but humans are neither completed nor truly grow in such a short span.
Isn’t it precisely through a variety of experiences and repeated failures that we mature? It’s a quote I want to remember as a personal motto—one that teaches us to move forward steadily without rushing.
Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground.Theodore Roosevelt
Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground. #Shorts #TheodoreRoosevelt #Quotes #SelfImprovement #Autosuggestion #Business #WiseWords
Known for his great achievements as a statesman, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States, also wore many other hats: soldier, writer, hunter, explorer, and naturalist.
His famous saying, “Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground,” is short yet reminds us of something important that’s easy to forget.
If we focus only on our goals, we can lose our footing; if we look only at our feet, we cannot dream of distant heights.
The message urges us to solidify our foundation even as we strive toward our dreams and goals.

Go your own way and let people say whatever they want.Dante Alighieri
[Impressive Quotations] Dante V – Soothing quotes in a healing narration (Follow your own path, and let people say what they will) #Quotes #HealingReading
Dante Alighieri, a philosopher hailed as the greatest poet of Italian literature and known for his profound influence on Renaissance culture.
His famous words, “Follow your own path, and let people talk,” resonate with the life he led—continuing his writing during a wandering existence after being exiled from the political sphere.
People often worry about how others see even the dreams they themselves have drawn, and they waver at the voices of those who have nothing to do with them.
Yet he teaches us that there is no need to lend an ear to the words of those who irresponsibly deny us.
Etched in your heart as a personal motto, this quote will help you keep the courage to stand by your convictions.
Life changes greatly when we choose gratitude over expectation.Anthony Robbins
Anthony Robbins is a world-renowned self-help author who also works as a speaker and philanthropist.
His famous quote, “Trade your expectations for appreciation and your life will change instantly,” can serve as a hint for times when life isn’t going the way you envisioned.
When we place too many expectations on things, we feel betrayed when they don’t work out.
But if we cultivate gratitude toward everything and everyone, we’re less likely to harbor those negative emotions.
It’s a quote that teaches us that the shape of our lives changes with our mindset.
