Change happens slowly right up until it happens quickly.

Voltaire said, “History never repeats itself; man always does.”

As the historian Sir Michael Howard observed, “No matter how clearly one thinks, it is impossible to anticipate precisely the character of future conflict. The key is to not be so far off the mark that it becomes impossible to adjust once that character is revealed.”

It’s too easy to justify in your mind dubious behaviors, don’t give yourself ammunition to fail.

Addiction Is Giving Up Everything For One Thing. Recovery Is Giving Up One Thing For Everything.

Empathy is like a Helicopter. You can fly it good or you can fly it badly.

Life’s biggest obstacle is the unfamiliar. Try to practice that. 
 - Chris Carter

Life’s biggest obstacle is the element of surprise. Those moments can seize us or we can seize them.

Everything is easy. If you know who to ask.
 
 - Chris Carter

I come off like I know everything, because that’s how I learn I don’t.

You and your partner are on a Ship. The Relation Ship. You are at sea. The rule is you can do any crazy thing you want, but you can’t sink the ship. 

   - Chris Carter

You can predict the future by putting yourself in a position you do not need prediction.
  - Chris Carter

Predictability is about paths. Power has no predictability, seek paths they already have power.
 
 - Chris Carter

Forget about power, seek predictability. For then life is no longer about obstacles, it's all about which "paths" to take.

I try to profit off my mistakes, like alchemy. Why work when you can get money for free.

It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.

 - Bruce Lee



I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

  - Bruce Lee

Don't mistake objects and obstacles as your future. A better pursuit is to seek predictability, for then life is no longer about obstacles, it's all about which "paths" to take.
  - Chris Carter

Your Future is Fitness

Your "future" is not obstacles. Its not a new car, it's not a new camera or a winning lotto ticket. It's not a new house or a new spouse. It's a path of fitness and Well-Being. Well, how did I get here?

Reality is the leading cause of stress amongst those in touch with it.
 ― Jane Wagner

Aristotle said:
    “Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life.”
 
Ralph Waldo Emerson says:
    “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful.”

Ernest Hemingway said:
I drink to make other people interesting.

Ernest also said:
Always listen COMPLETELY, most people don't listen.

Chris Carter said:
Give people free drinks then they'll listen to you.

To live a simple life and "get out of your own way" is very difficult. Keeping out of your own way is hard because it's difficult to "do nothing" and preserve pristine "reality," but if you can do it the universe will favor your circumstance. For as what will be, will then BE, uncontaminated, by you or me.
- Chris Carter

NEVER JUDGE A DAY BY THE WEATHER.

THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE AREN’T THINGS.

TELL THE TRUTH THERE’S LESS TO REMEMBER.

GOALS ARE DECEPTIVE - THE UNAIMED ARROW NEVER MISSES.

AGE IS RELATIVE - WHEN YOU’RE OVER THE HILL, YOU PICK UP SPEED.

THERE ARE 2 WAYS TO BE RICH - MAKE MORE OR DESIRE LESS. 

CHRIS CARTER TRANSLATIONS:

 Get to know yourself well but do not attempt to fight Mother Nature. She is out of your league.
(Translation:: In the scope of the universe you’re a little piece of ant poop and can be crushed any second, stay out of trouble.)

The most difficult aspect to any Health or Diet program is simply staying on it.
(Translation:: Any dumb infomercial may indeed be about something good that works, but health is more about how “you” operate than it is about ANY program.)

If you’re not aware of the whole picture, all the programs in the world won‘t save you.
(Translation:: A zero calorie salad can be wrecked with bacon cheese fat greasy dressing.)

Being “aware” is like having a safety belt.
(Translation:: Scrape some of that dressing off the salad.)

To lose control, and KNOW you lost control, is a still a measure of control.
(Translation:: It’s okay to fail, it’s actually profitable if you learn something. Start making profits.)

Fate does control everything, your demise is coming, but for heaven sakes
let’s not get it here ahead of schedule.
(Translation:: There’s a bee hive. There’s a big stick. Don’t poke it.)

Your mind is a sponge for excuses, diversions, and phony justifications.
(Translation:: You’re a sucker, just remember that.)

The key is to separate your Self induced indulgences from the murk of hedonist temptation.
(Translation:: We’re goin’ to hell, but we’re takin’ the way I said we would. Be in charge.)

The tendency is to attempt to manipulate control, rather than investigate the source of instigation.
(Translation:: Coming up with reasons to buy bigger size Jeans tells your ass it’s free to GROW.)

You must embrace and acknowledge all your evil behaviors, give them a space
and make a box to put them in. Feed them. Control them. Watch them. Slowly kill them all.
(Translation:: Pick a fight with Mother Nature, kick ass the best you can,
let her win, live to fight another day.)

Prioritize your resources and concentrate your firepower so you can fight the right fight.
(Translation:: Don’t poke that stick in that beehive, get some TNT and blow it up. Next project. )

It’s too easy to justify in your mind dubious behaviors, don’t give yourself ammunition to fail.
(Translation:: Your speeding toward hell, sign says slow down stay in your lane, don’t smart off to the State Trooper.)
