Life's Little Lessons
Quotes motivate, and inspire because they encompass years of wisdom of people who had experienced the same hardship or undergone the same circumstances. They can be uplifting, and a quick ‘pick me up’ when things don’t go quite the way we want them to.
Here are some aphorisms, maxims and truisms – motivational and inspirational words to nudge you along life’s journey during your moments of doubt.

I was a bartender. 😃 And which profession are you in - if you don't mind my asking. 😃
Thanky for being open. It must have been a wonderful journey given the stories I've read about bartenders! 😜
I trade the financial markets for a living. Exciting but not in the same capacity as yours.

Bartending is an interesting job. I got to meet a lot of people and learn a lot about people.
Yup, financial markets are certainly not in my capacity. I hope you will always do well.
Thank you much. Being able to garner life experiences like yourself is definitely more fulfilling and satisfying. Make for great sharing during an alcohol fest. I just stare at a screen all day. Lol
I guess it worked for me. But there are also people who enjoy the excitement of watching the market yoyo-ing. 😊
Are you working for a company, or doing it on your own?
The days of "free" money was in the late 2000s. I was still in school then. Hahahah.
Capital heavy to do trading like my. The short answer is I'm speculating other ppl's money.
Not my time... Yet.

Howdy sir Vincent! Some great ones here. This is the most interesting one to me.."The quality of your life is in direct proportion to the amount of uncertainty you can comfortably deal with." - Tony Robbins
That one makes me think, do you think it's true? I suppose he's talking about stretching and growing yourself?
