Hillbilly Wisdom

Someone — Thu, 22 Sep 2022 16:10:07 +0000

Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong. Keep skunks, bankers, and politicians at a distance. Life is simpler when you plow around the stump. A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor. Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not yelled. The best sermons are lived, not preached. If[...]

Redefine your definition of failure

Someone — Sat, 07 Jul 2018 12:00:04 +0000

What if, instead of seeing it as a failure when we give something a go and it doesn’t work out, we see it as a victory that we tried in the first place? Perhaps the word failure would be more aptly used in situations where we don’t attempt things at all, because we’re ruled by[...]

Decide to accept yourself no matter what

Someone — Thu, 05 Jul 2018 12:00:57 +0000

Love yourself on the good days — and love yourself on the bad days too. Love yourself when things go to plan, you light up the room, and kick all of your goals — and love yourself when you make mistakes, succumb to bad habits, and let your fears get the better of you. Unconditional[...]

Give to give, not to receive

Someone — Sun, 01 Jul 2018 12:00:03 +0000

There is something so beautiful about giving from a place of pure love, without conditions or expectations — to feel someone else’s happiness as your own. Try to give more without seeking anything in return, and notice how the positive feelings you experience from seeing someone else’s joy and comfort are more than enough return[...]

Your kids aren’t you

Someone — Sun, 10 Jun 2018 12:00:49 +0000

You are the vessel to bring your children into the world and their caretakers until they can care for themselves. You can teach them, love them, and support them, but you can’t change them. They are unique individuals who must live their own lives and learn from their own mistakes. Let them.

You are the author of your own life

Someone — Tue, 17 Apr 2018 00:38:58 +0000

You are the author of your own life. Everyone has a story they want to tell you about yourself. Society tries to push a “standard narrative” on us about how life should go. Ignore these stories. If you don’t like the story you’re living, it’s up to you to change the plot. You didn’t write[...]

There’s no single “right” way to achieve success

Someone — Mon, 09 Apr 2018 00:38:58 +0000

There’s no single “right” way to achieve success. Each of us is different. We have different goals, personalities, and experiences. We each need to find the tools and techniques that are effective for our own situations. There’s no one right way to eat, love, pray, or pay off debt. Don’t believe anyone who tells you[...]

Embrace the imperfections

Someone — Sun, 08 Apr 2018 00:56:56 +0000

Embrace the imperfections. If you do what is right, and you do your best, then there’s no reason to feel bad about the outcome. Nobody’s perfect. Don’t beat yourself up if you make mistakes. And don’t sweat it if other people get upset with you too. If you’re doing the best you can, that’s good[...]
