Michael Horton Quotes

No one can give you better advice than yourself.

I've learned that while I'd be a fool not to stay open to the advice and experiences of the smart, amazing people in my life, I also need to listen to what I have to say.

I know what's best for me, and I want to do things my way. So, now I listen to my inner voice and my heart - and that's how I make my decisions.

I never allowed other people's expectations to determine whatever course I took. I had to reach a decision about what I was going to do based on what I felt inside myself.

You have to believe in yourself and only trust your own vision and instincts. If I'd listened to what other people thought about my work in the first 10 years that I was a writer, I never would have made it to begin with.

I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.

You are the only person that you agree with 100 percent of the time.

You should not pay too much attention to what anyone tells you, including me. It's very, very important to follow your own map.

And first and foremost, think straight, trust the quiet inner voice that tells you what to do. You hold your life in your hands, don't entrust it to anyone else, least of all to your chosen leaders. BE YOURSELF! Any number of great men have told you that.

I have felt independent of the opinions of others in terms of whether or not I should or shouldn't be doing that. There's something that I allow to consult myself within myself rather than looking outside to see if this is right or not.

I think I have enough of a sense to know what works for me and what doesn't, without going into some big thing and analyzing what I do. I'm in a position that allows me to do what I want to do, and I do it.

Sticking to your values, listening to your instincts, making your own choices is so important.

I do what I believe.

And don't consult anyone's opinions but your own.
