Kobe Bryant once said, "You won’t feel motivated every day." Whether it’s for work, training, or learning, show up and give your best regardless. That’s what true professionals do. The conditions will never be perfect, but real progress comes when you push forward despite the obstacles. Don’t wait for the right moment or for things to feel easy—take action now. Discipline is what sets the great apart from the rest.

I wonder what we think of the New Year as. Is it a year of freshness? Is it something completely new, something that has never happened before? When we say it is something new, even though we know that nothing new comes in a day, when we talk about a happy New Year, is it really a new year for us? Or is it just the same old stereotypes over and over again? We continue to do the same old rituals, the same old traditions, the same old habits, and we will do those things this year too.
So is there anything new there? Is there anything really fresh, something that you have never seen before? I think that is a very important question, because if you follow this, you can change every day of your life in a way that you have never seen before. It means to be free from attachment, from its nature, from ideology and opinions, from judgments, from fixed beliefs. Can we really start a new year by putting all that aside? If we can do that, it will be a wonderful thing. Because our lives are so shallow, so empty, that they are not meaningful at all. Whether we like it or not, we are born, we are educated - that too can be an obstacle for us. But is it possible to completely change the direction of all our lives? Or do we always blame ourselves for walking towards narrow, inferior, meaningless lives? We are filling our minds with things that we have put together. This is not a lecture. Perhaps in all the churches, temples and all that in the world we celebrate the New Year in the same old way, with the old customs, rituals, old habits and all that. But
Can we start the new one with pure, clean and empty hearts, without any shadows of the past?

“I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
–Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (1929)

The most strongly enforced of all known taboos is the taboo against knowing who or what you really are behind the mask of your apparently separate, independent, and isolated ego.
Alan Watts
“The best thing for being sad,” replied Merlin, beginning to puff and blow, “is to learn something. That’s the only thing that never fails. You may grow old and trembling in your anatomies, you may lie awake at night listening to the disorder of your veins, you may miss your only love, you may see the world about you devastated by evil lunatics, or know your honour trampled in the sewers of baser minds. There is only one thing for it then — to learn.
Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.”
― T.H. White, The Once and Future King

Rudolf Steiner, who founded the esoteric spiritual movement Anthroposophy, used the concept of Ahriman to name one of two extreme forces which pull humanity away from the centering influence of God. Steiner associated Ahriman, the lower spirit, with materialism, science, heredity, objectivity, and soul-hardening. He thought that contemporary Christianity was subject to Ahrimanic influence, since it tended towards materialistic interpretations. Steiner predicted that Ahriman, as a supersensible Being, would incarnate into an earthly form, some little time after our present earthly existence, in fact in the third post-Christian millennium.

If you had only one hour to live, what would you do? Would you not arrange what is necessary outwardly, your affairs, your will, and so on? Would you not call your family and friends together and ask their forgiveness for the harm that you might have done to them, and forgive them for whatever harm they might have done to you? Would you not die completely to the things of the mind, to desires and to the world? And if it can be done for an hour, then it can also be done for the days and years that may remain. Try it and you will find out.

The rich want to forget themselves in night clubs, in amusements, in cars, in travelling. The clever ones want to forget themselves, so they begin to invent, to have extraordinary beliefs. The stupid ones want to forget themselves, and so they follow people; they have gurus who tell them what to do. The ambitious ones also want to forget themselves in doing something. So all of us, as we mature, as we grow older, want to forget ourselves, and so we try to find something greater with which to be identified. —Krishnamurti⠀

From The Collected Works Vol. 8
Bruce Lee’s 1970 back injury was a huge event in his life but it’s real impact is rarely understood or acknowledged. Whilst recovering from the incident he studied (according to his wife Linda), all the works of the psychological/spiritual teacher Jiddu Krishnamurti.
This meant that his whole outlook on life, on the martial arts, on film work, ALL went through a radical transformation. His JKD pre Krishnamurti, was nothing like his JKD post Krishnamurti.
The way Bruce thought and expressed himself changed dramatically after he read Krishnamurti and his message of “freedom from the known”. After studying Krishnamurti Bruce became an advocate of having “no way, as way”… he wanted to practice a “styleless style”.
Yet on all the main YouTube channels about Bruce, Krishnamurti is never mentioned… in books about Bruce, the Krishnamurti connection gets little attention… and in the 1993 movie biopic “Dragon” there is zero mention.
In my experience the massive impact of Krishnamurti on the dragon is still largely unknown and ignored. Sadly, you cannot understand Bruce without understanding Krishnamurti.
