The preparation, commitment and desire to win will be no less than the last time I drove a grand prix car in anger.

We've lost our sense of outrage, our anger, and our grief about what's going on in our culture right now, what's going on in our country, the atrocities that are being committed in our names around the world. They've gone missing; these feelings have gone missing.

A man must fortify himself and understand that a wise man who yields to laziness or anger or passion or love of drink, or who commits any other action prompted by impulse and inopportune, will probably find his fault condoned; but if he stoops to greed, he will not be pardoned, but render himself odious as a combination of all vices at once.

My heart is unlimited in the amount of love, but it is limited in the passion and commitment.

We're all pros already. 1) We show up every day 2) We show up no matter what 3) We stay on the job all day 4) We are committed over the long haul 5) The stakes for us are high and real 6) We accept remuneration for our labor 7) We do not overidentify with our jobs 8 ) We master the technique of our jobs 9) We have a sense of humor about our jobs 10) We receive praise or blame in the real world

Nothing quite has reality for me till I write it all down--revising and embellishing as I go. I'm always waiting for things to be over so I can get home and commit them to paper.

Always carry a notebook. And I mean always. The short-term memory only retains information for three minutes; unless it is committed to paper you can lose an idea for ever.

In a way, literature is true than life,' he said to himself. 'On paper, you say exactly and completely what you feel. How easy it is to break things off on paper! You hate, you shout, you kill, you commit suicide; you carry things to the very end. And that's why it's false. But it's damned satisfying. In life, you're constantly denying yourself, and others are always contradicting you. On paper, I make time stand still and I impose my convictions on the whole world; they become the only reality.

So okay? there you are in your room with the shade down and the door shut and the plug pulled out of the base of the telephone. You've blown up your TV and committed yourself to a thousand words a day, come hell or high water. Now comes the big question: What are you going to write about? And the equally big answer: Anything you damn well want.

If you want to succeed in the world you must make your own opportunities as you go on. The man who waits for some seventh wave to toss him on dry land will find that the seventh wave is a long time a-coming. You can commit no greater folly than to sit by the road side until someone comes along and invites you to ride with him to wealth or influence

2. "Creating #Change in Leadership is not merely about the brilliance or fineness of intellectual propositions, but rather about; The #Sincerity of the leader and his #Intrinsic resolve to lend himself #wholly to the course in spite of the natural lure for ease and pleasure; It is about preserving the #Fervor and #Spirit of the collectively shared #Vision through accepting #Obligations that may sometimes disrupt personal liberty and comfort; It is about speaking through sweat drenched #Commitment and accomplishments rather than rationalizing indolence; It is about a religious devotion to the greater #Us, as against the "I", "Me" or "Myself"... You may walk like #Cambridge, look like #Harvard and speak like the #Whitehouse, if you don't have these fine character traits, you won't be able to chase a fly out of a toilet; for suits don't change anything, but people with a #Heart do

Having a valid reason why you commit crime. It doesn't make it right to commit crime and it doesn't take away the fact that doing crime is wrong and is not allowed.

It's a shame that you have to lie and say someone is selling alcohol or there is a party going on to get police attention in South Africa. If you call and tell them about crime being committed, Gender Based Violence or drugs being sold. They don't respond or show up. It's like criminals join police force to commit their crime officially and using states resources. Our police only want to arrests people who are innocent and they let go of criminals.

Sedition is sedition no matter who commits it! Violence and treachery is always wrong!

If you are using herbs, juju, witchcraft, love spell or potion on your partner. Know that you are committing Gender Base Violence ( GBV )

We must avoid telling ourselves that we are forever committed to the trajectory of our thoughts and feelings today.

Setting aside commitments, we are left with the small slice of the day that embodies our daily freedom. You must strive to grow this slice of time.

Maturation of self is not a destination; it is a gradual journey propelled by commitment and consistency.

We often have a variety of commitments competing for our time at any given moment.

Maintaining a commitment to learning ensures acquisition of knowledge and solidification of a mature worldview.

Do not measure your life using someone else's ruler. In doing so, you are committing a great injustice to yourself.

We must commit to change; we must commit to the daily challenge of bettering ourselves no matter the obstacles.

I'm inspired by love, by the moments that we commit to something with all our heart - be it a person, a project, an animal, anything really. It's undeniably inspiring, that acknowledgment of existence, that I love, that I care. That fills me with purpose.

If careful attention is paid to the reality, we will see clearly, the real shortage is of the right skills, rather than of jobs. If the right skills are developed, the right start-ups and other enterprises will emerge and provide the jobs needed. It's always the horse before the cart, not the other way round. At a personal level, it will require the realisation of the need for the acquisition of required skills, the discipline to pursue it and the commitment to push through. These will require a great deal of personal courage and effort. But then, the benefit will be immeasurable.
