S7E2 J. McNAIR: The future is not what we planned for tomorrow it's the result of what we do today.

There is a considerable difference between knowing and accepting that we are a work in progress, then programming ourselves to believe that some commonly accepted, socially influenced changes will help mask our issues; issues that will take a lot more to resolve than a list of empty affirmations made on what is just another day.  ― Carlos Wallace, Life Is Not Complicated-You Are: Turning Your Biggest Disappointments Into Your Greatest Blessings --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lifeisnotcomplicated/message

“Class. You either have it, or you don't. It's not determined by how you dress, your level of education, or your social standing. It's conveyed in how you carry yourself and treat others.

Ultimately, people with class are outstanding without trying too hard to stand out.”― Carlos Wallace, Life Is Not Complicated-You Are: Turning Your Biggest Disappointments Into Your Greatest Blessings --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lifeisnotcomplicated/message
