More From Epicurus

Confidence is not lodged in people's brains, it comes from the support system that surrounds them. let's not confuse confidence overall with just self-confidence. self-confidence is only one part of confidence. people also need confidence in others - their colleagues and leaders - that they can count on them to do the right thing and not to let them down.

You must not lose confidence in god because you lost confidence in your pastor. if our confidence in god had to depend upon our confidence in any human person, we would be on shifting sand.
God Would Be Shifting
I think that happiness is a very strange thing. and we really feel that we have a right to this happiness. but i feel like it's constantly fluctuating, and that you can make yourself happy. i think it's an outlook. having a positive attitude probably sounds like a corny thing to say, but a positive attitude really helps, and respecting your job really helps, and having the support of your family and friends really helps.

Friends can be incredible sometimes, but have you ever had a friend that can be really annoying or really mean to you? friends shouldn't stab you in the back. have you ever wondered if your friend has ever said stuff about you to their other friends? it gets pretty intimidating sometimes to think about that. what i'm saying is to find your friends that are real. don't keep the ones that are fake and are just friends with you for what you have. be strong. don't take no for an answer. never back down. stand up for what you believe in. friends are great to have, but just be cautious.

Resolved ... that it would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights: that confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism - free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence.

I'm actually big into meditation, transcendental meditation, and that really helps create not only a sense of balance, but all the other stuff this is gonna sound cliché... serenity and kind of a calm state of mind. and not that i'm like that all the time, but it helps me deal with life's ups and downs, coming from more of a centered place. also it helps with creativity.

Similar Quotes
Creativity needs discipline and freedom.
Creativity Discipline Needs
From the living fountain of instinct flows everything that is creative; hence the unconscious is not merely conditioned by history, but is the very source of the creative impulse. it is like nature herself - prodigiously conservative, and yet transcending her own historical conditions in her acts of creation.
Love Creativity Creative
... what the artist or creative scientist feels is not anxiety or fear; it is joy. i use the word in contrast to happiness or pleasure. the artist, at the moment of creating, does not experience gratification or satisfaction... rather, it is joy, joy defined as the emotion that goes with heightened consciousness, the mood that accompanies the experience of actualizing one's own potentialities.
