I like what this guy has to say: Stephen Fry.
If it's a little too long for you and you can't listen to the entire 35 minutes, just listen to the first 10.
Some gems from this video:
" You can't have an idiot look into a mirror and expect an apostle to be looking out"
" The worst thing you can do for yourself is set goals. Goal orientation is absolutely disastrous." (find out why he says this. Interesting)
"Work is more fun than fun" ( What he is really saying is - Find what you love doing and you will never work a day in your life. Confucius. )
"There is one common thing that unsuccessful people talk about - themselves"
"I'm sure it's terrible for you dear, but just shut up!" (talking about whiners, complainers and demanding people)
And - from the 29 minute mark to the 30 minute mark: "The Dark Side to the Internet".....hmm. Talking about those "Obsessed with self - the Kind of people that make {vicious} comments" - should be required reading. :)
"In the world, what counts more than talent or energy or concentration or commitment is Kindness. Justice {and} truth are dwarfed by the Greatness of Kindness"
I just really liked what he had to say.
