“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.

 

  Don't be trapped by dogma -

 

which is living with the results of  other people's thinking.

 

  Don't let the noise of other's opinions

 

drown out your own inner voice.

 

  And most important, have the courage to

 

follow your heart and  intuition.

 

They somehow already know what you truly want to

 

  become. Everything else is secondary.”

“.. Almost everything – all external expectations, all pride,

 

all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in

 

the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

 

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know

 

to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.

 

You are already naked.

 

There is no reason not to follow your heart.”
