Life Lessons of Wisdom & Motivation Insightful, Enlightened and Inspirational
Quotations and Proverbs Volume I, II,III IV Life Lessons of Wisdom & Motivation are a compilation of Quotations and Proverbs from around the World organized to enlighten, stimulate thought, promote personal growth, and to help readers discover their core values in regards to finding their true purpose in life. Taken from the wisest people that ever walked our small planet throughout the ages, these timeless Quotes and Proverbs are nuggets of wisdom passed down since people were able to comprehend life and the world around them. Surprisingly, some of the same wisdom that held true in ancient times has been repeated throughout history, said in a particular way based on the era, which gives them a heavy weight of truth.  Organized to help guide your mind’s eye in distinguishing the most significant passages to you and your being as well as reaffirming or contradicting what you already know and believe. Based on your situation, life experiences, and or personality your subconscious will pick out the most relevant quotes and proverbs to you and you alone. Many of us slumber through life not knowing who or what we are. We lack purpose, drive or direction, blindly following societal norms and expectations or only work towards meeting our most basic needs. We spend so much time and energy attempting to do what is expected of us, enrich our wallets, or to gain favor with others, that we hardly spend any time enriching our own lives or determining what makes us happy.  Like the great Irish writer, Oscar Wilde, said, “To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” Don’t be one of those people! Even more important than finding your true purpose in life is the motivation and courage needed to take action. These volumes give you all the insight, information, and inspiration necessary for you to succeed, but ultimately, what you do with these nuggets of wisdom is up to you.  To get the full benefit of these volumes and to fully immerse yourself in self-discovery, you must commit yourself to studying all the sections as well as all the volumes. If you want to scratch the surface of what is important in life, then read 1 volume-but if you want to master what’s important in life and your being then study all 4 volumes.
Read and carefully study all the volumes as well as all the topics to wake yourself up, gain insight into the most important elements of life, break through the illusions you’ve built for yourself, discover yourself, and live a life free from regret. We spend so much time and energy on things that won’t matter in 1 year, 5 years, or even 10 years, but the wisdom in these pages will last you a lifetime. Taking one month out of your life to figure things out is a very small price to pay for a lifetime of wisdom, enlightenment, and direction.
