Bruce Lee
Image

Bruce Lee
Image
Never waste energy on worries or negative thoughts, all problems are brought into existence -drop them.
Bruce Lee

Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability. You will do just fine.
Bruce Lee
Image
It is not a shame to be knocked down by other people. The important thing is to ask when you're being knocked down, 'Why am I being knocked down?' If a person can reflect in this way, then there is hope for this person.
Bruce Lee
Image
When you say that something is impossible, you have made it impossible.
Bruce Lee
Image
To me, ultimately, martial arts means honestly expressing yourself.
