Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.
Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
Thought is the sculptor who can create the person you want to be.
Study yourself. Find your strong points and make them stronger as well as your weak ones and strengthen them. Study yourself carefully and you will see yourself as you really are.
Take time to be quiet. This is something that we don't do enough in this busy world of ours. We rush, rush, rush, and we are constantly listening to noise all around us. The human heart was meant for times of quiet, to peer deep within. It is when we do this that our hearts are set free to soar and take flight on the wings of our own dreams! Schedule some quiet "dream time" this week. No other people. No cell phone. No computer. Just you, a pad, a pen, and your thoughts.
Wisdom can only come through honest introspection.
Adversity always presents opportunities for introspection.
It is necessary ... for a man to go away by himself ... to sit on a rock ... and ask, 'Who am I, where have I been, and where am I going?
Every organization needs to be introspective, transparent, and honest with itself. This only works if everyone is unified on the goals and purposes of the organization and there is trust within the team. High-performing, successful organizations build cultures of introspection and trust and never lose sight of their purpose.
The most mature human insight comes from one's introspection rather than from exterior research.
There are times when those eyes inside your brain stare back at you.
The unexamined life is not worth living.
The mind can weave itself warmly in the cocoon of its own thoughts, and dwell a hermit anywhere.
Many people suffer from the fear of finding oneself alone, and so they don't find themselves at all.
The only journey is the one within.
Give yourself the gift of time in coming to answers for your life...It takes time, and a lot of introspection and soul-searching, to get clear about what you really want to manifest in your life.
Most of the trouble in the world is caused by people wanting to be important.
Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.
The problem with introspection is that it has no end.
A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet introspection
Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection.
Introspection is a devouring monster. You have to feed it with much material, much experience, many people, many places, many loves, many creations, and then it ceases feeding on you.
