Sunday's Vitamin: Life changing sentences (1)

A very interesting question was posted on Quora.com (a social knowledge sharing site):

"What are one or two sentences that someone has told you that changed your life?"

The question was so stimulating that hundreds of people commented with their answers. And I have chosen the following 7 answers for you:

1- "What are you waiting for? Someone to discover you? Just do it yourself."

2- "Stop waiting for the light at the end of the tunnel, you've got to go and light it for yourself."

3- "What makes leadership & excellence is not being fearless, but experiencing your natural fear and doing what needs to be done anyway."

4- "Never compare your weaknesses to other people's strengths."

5- “People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing! That’s why we recommend it daily!”

6- "The weak manager tells. The good manager explains. The superior manager demonstrates. The great manager inspires."

7- "Wake up, the exam starts in a minute."

Someone said that this sentence saved his term (it seems that one of his parents shouted it at him!).
