Strengthen Spirit: Follow Bruce Lee Principles.

Bruce Lee achieved global fame not only thanks to his acting and incredible martial arts abilities but also because of his reputation as a great philosopher. His views on life still inspire people around the world even today. The martial arts master always carried a notebook with him in which he recorded all the important thoughts that came to him during the day. Recently, all of these records were restored and published online.

• On willpower and emotions
  Recognizing that the power of will is the supreme court over all other departments of my mind, I will exercise it daily when I need the urge to act for any purpose, and I will form habits designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.
• On reason, imagination, and memory
  Recognizing that my positive and negative emotions may be dangerous if they are not guided to desirable ends, I will submit all my desires, aims, and purposes to my faculty of reason, and I will be guided by it in giving expression to these.
• On the subconscious mind and one’s conscience
  Reorganizing the influence of my subconscious mind over my power of will, I shall take care to submit to it a clear and definite picture of my major purpose in life and all minor purposes leading to my major purpose and I shall keep this picture constantly before my subconscious mind by repeating it daily.
• Finally, on understanding life
  You will never get more from life than you expect. Concentrate your thoughts on what you want and what you don’t want. Calmly observe what is happening inside yourself. No one can hurt you unless you allow them to. Inside yourself, at the psychological level, be no one.
