Quote by Henri Bergson

You will obtain a vision of matter that is perhaps fatiguing for your imagination, but pure and stripped of what the requirements of life make you add to it in external perception.

You will obtain a vision of matter that is perhaps fatiguing

Summary

This quote suggests that by removing the biases and attachments imposed by our life experiences and external perceptions, we can gain a clearer and more objective understanding of matter. It implies that our imagination may be overwhelmed or challenged by this unadulterated vision, which requires us to perceive things without the subjective influences of our daily lives. By stripping away these additional layers, we can achieve a purer and more unbiased comprehension of the true nature of matter.

Success with money, family, relationships, health, and caree

Success with money, family, relationships, health, and careers is the ability to reach your personal objectives in the shortest time, with the least effort and with the fewest mistakes. The goals you set for yourself and the strategies you choose become your blueprint or plan. Strategies are like recipes: choose the right ingredients, mix them in the correct proportions, and you will always produce the same predictable results: in this case financial success. The success strategies for managing money and building wealth are called Money Strategies. By learning to use money strategies as a part of your day-to-day life, financial frustration and failure will become a thing of the past.
