I’m pretty sure Bruce Lee never said this random ass quote.

If you don't separate yourself from memes, memes will separate sentence you never said into two lines.

How can you be sure? Did you stand next to him for his whole life witnessing everything he said and take notes?

At least this time, the shitty, lazy image isn't using quotation marks or explicitly claiming it's a quote.

But I'm still sick of people linking these kinds of statements to Bruce Lee.

Yeah but you gotta admit, its pretty disingenuous to use a image of Bruce saying something, and then overlay a quote on it.

If OP claims that he wasn’t trying to imply Lee said those words, I wouldn’t believe him at all.

OP (who is me) didn’t create the image. I got it from Google, and saved it to my photos, as I find it to be motivational.

I’m sure we all kno Bruce Lee didn’t say those things, lol. However, I don’t think the picture matters. Whether it’s Bruce Lee, Muhammad Ali, or Ronnie Coleman the message remains the same.

I don't think he said it but he could have said it and the message is true imo. So idgaf if this actually is a quote or made up. I will pass on the message without the Bruce Lee tag because I think it's strong enough on it's on for many.

I have adhd, everything is a distraction, and 1-2 years into any job and I will nose dive unstoppably. And while I know this, I won't have the energy, focus and concentration to look for something else before my inevitable crash.. so, lemme focus on my distraction while I run out this clock I've set.

Lemme hold all your words and thoughts for you real quick. Now you can use linearly-aligned, time-based grammar. You're welcome.

Huh? Are you saying what I wrote is too well written? If that's the case, well, it took me decades to get it so nicely refined. If that's not what your getting at, then toss in the /r/whoosh sub tag.. I'm lost.

Becoming a clear communicator takes genuine effort and it is paying off. All I can be in your life at this moment is someone who recognises that.

Mr. Furious : Okay, am I the only one who finds these sayings just a little bit formulaic? "If you want to push something down, you have to pull it up. If you want to go left, you have to go right." It's...

Distractions would come when the goal is big & the journey is tedious. The real question for me is: how much distraction or comfort is actually fine? Like people would say, you need to give your 100% & must focus hard on your goals, but in real life, sometimes it's not possible.

I get distracted so easily so it's one of the hardest things I can ever do

S-Vagus t1_isgswqi wrote

That is why I never separate from distracting things, so that I can become the distraction that distracts others from their goals of not being distracted, which is where I win because now they are distracted and my goal of being a distraction is achieved! Haha! Vagus Martial Arts of Ego!

Never a better time than browsing reddit, seeing something like this, and feeling a real kick in the groin over ADHD and treatment resistant MDD.

His family was also cursed. His son Brandon Lee died on set when shot with a loaded gun while filming the crow.
