Is there a certain saying you hold close to your heart?

I have a saying that I like to live by, there are so many good and bad people and this saying puts it all in a nutshell so to speak it is " Those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter". I think that it makes it easier to put up with negative as well as positive comments in all situations, and to only worry about those who have your best interests at heart. Do you have any sayings or words of wisdom that you feel make your life easier and possibly others too?

My freind always says the second one to me, its all about positive thinking and believing in yourself. Set no limits and you have no bounderies to break.. I am glad you like the saying that I live by too. It is greta to know you will be passingit to your children as I will be doing with mine.

Yes, there's a saying that I hold close to my heart to keep me from feeling bad whenever detractors start saying not so nice things about me. It goes something like this..."Your reality (or truth) is not how other think of you. So, don't care what other people say. For as long as your happy and you're not stepping on anyone's foot, just go on and do what you wish." Can't remember the original wordings, sorry.

No worries about original words we get the picture, but in short it is definately about living and letting live which is a great way to live your life without hurting others or letting what othe rpeople do affect you when it should indeed not.

"Whatever you can or dream you can, begin it." I'd rather take action than waste my time on just thinking about it.

I like this saying, definately too many people spend a lot of time thinking rather than putting their words into action.
