"The average person puts only 25% of his energy into his work. The world takes off its hat to those who put in more than 50% of their capacity, and stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%."
~ Andrew Carnegie, American industrialist and philanthropist
How true is that?
Here's to 100%!

“PhilosophersNotes combine the distilled thoughts of our greatest thinkers with the enthusiasm needed to actually put them into play in our own lives. Brian Johnson, Chief Philosopher, is one part laser beam to wisdom, one part companion for the inner journey, and one part Captain Jack Sparrow (in the first Pirate's movie)—mixed well. It is a great service to have Brian's personal introduction to brilliant thinkers I have not met, as well as a vivid reminder of what inspired me in the works of authors I already know.”
“Hi, Brian. Just wanted to say thanks for your service. I'm enjoying it so much. I listen to it between songs while I'm running and before I go to bed. I have self-help audio books, but with 3 kids, homework for my masters degree and freelance work (to pay for aforementioned degree)I rarely have a spare 3-4 hours to listen to an entire book. Your speaking style is very friendly and engaging. Keep up the great work! Laura P P.S. Thanks for making it so affordable as well (see aforementioned expensive children, tuition fees, etc....)”
"In Sanskrit, ‘man’ means ‘mind’ and ‘tra’ means ‘freeing.’ So a mantra is a phrase which is designed to free the mind... [mantras] are my faithful companions wherever I go. Whether I am on the bus, walking to the library or watching the world go by in a park, I am constantly affirming al that is good in my world through mantras." ~ Robin Sharma
