    Default Personal Mottos

    or, words you live by.

    Lately I've been trying to adopt "slow down." I speak before I think, I jump to conclusions, I go through motions without waiting to think about consequences or end results or I'm just plain sloppy and trying to get through something as quickly as possible so it comes out wrecked.

    What are your personal mottos, or something that should be your personal motto/words you live by?

    I got my personal motto from a Fiona Apple song:

    Be kind to me, or treat me mean--I make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine

    I also take my motto from a song:

    Get up, get on up,
    Get up, get on up
    Stay on the scene, get on up
    Like a sex machine, get on up


    Helped me through a lot of hard times.

    Yes, such as when I overcame a crippling leg injury.

    When I read the word 'Get' I expected the lyrics to be

    Get on up when you're down,
    Baby, take a good look around,
    I know it's not much, but it's okay,
    We'll keep on moving on anyway


    I feel dirty
    I made one myself for a change! Although you can probably tell that..
