#178: From Viktor Frankl To Jim Collins — The 5 Lines of Wisdom That Have Most Influenced Me

Happy New Year! To celebrate the start of 2022, I wanted to kick off with a few special types of episodes.

Top 5 Lines of Wisdom that have influenced me:

5 — 'You might want to think about whether you want a life to envy or a life to admire.' — Jim Collins

4 — Viktor Frankl on self transcendence “The more one forgets himself--by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love--the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself. What is called self-actualization is not an attainable aim at all, for the simple reason that the more one would strive for it, the more he would miss it. In other words, self-actualization is possible only as a side-effect of self-transcendence.”

3 — Buckminster Fuller "the search for the principles governing the universe and help advance the evolution of humanity in accordance with them ... finding ways of doing more with less to the end that all people everywhere can have more and more"

2 — ‘Focus on what you have, you'll gain what you lack. Focus on what you lack, you'll lose what you have’ — Greg McKeown

1 — ‘I only do what only I can do’ — Jack Delosa

BONUS

Some men see things as they are and ask, ""Why?"" I dream things that never were and ask, ""Why not?"" — George Bernard Shaw
