It's kitsch - I know - but I like proverbs. I write them down and try to remember the ones I can relate to (or at least try to draw inspiration from).
Here are some of my favorites,
- The one I keep in mind all the time " He who speaks sows. He who listens reaps. "
- The one a friend told me before I left " He who dares, wins "
- The one who accompanies my career as a photographer " Just do it " (not the brand, the proverb!)
- And finally, the one I scribbled in my notebook at the Nepal " Taking the time to make it better "
What about you?
