Cookies Fourtune

So tonight I ordered Chinese food for a local restaurant and i had told them that I would be grateful if they game me a few more cookies. When it had arrived the bag was closed and I couldn't smell the wonderful smell of the Lo mein like i normally do. All I smelt was fortune cookies. This was due to there being 21 cookies in my bag. O how I was overjoyed. After I enjoyed the cookies I figured it would be cool to type up and share the fortunes and wisdom that has been departed upon me by these wonderful delights.

  1. Confidence of success is almost success.
  2. Determination is what you need now.
  3. Every wise man started out by asking many questions.
  4. Don't accept that others know better than you.
  5. Discontent is the first necessity of progress.
  6. Confidence is the hinge on the door to success.
  7. Every artist was first an amateur.
  8. Courtesy costs nothing.
  9. Creative energy is up - capitalize on it.
  10. Don't waste time on what might have been
  11. Affirm it, visualize it, believe it, and it will actualize itself.
  12. Do not desire what you do not need.
  13. Despair is criminal.
  14. Discipline is wisdom and vice versa.
  15. Don't ask, don't say. Everything lies in silence.
  16. Courage is the mastery of fear - not the absence of fear.
  17. Discriminating mind leads you in the proper direction.
  18. Don't get so caught up in the daily grind that you never find any time for yourself.
  19. Don't be afraid of opposition; remember, a kite rises against the wind.
  20. Do you see difficulty behind every opportunity, or opportunity behind every difficulty?
  21. Don't forget, you are always on our minds.

  1. I really never received a cool fortune but DH(dear hubby) has gotten a blank one. Then him and his brother went together one time and got the same saying. Weird!

  3. Your fortunes all look like they were written by Tony Robbins. My big beef with fortune cookies is that so few of them actually venture a prediction about the future. Yours scored 0 out of 21 for making any kind of predictive statement; every one of them was just advice, or even worse just adages. Those are okay as they go, and even fun to read, but fortune cookies these days are sadly misnamed.

    Best fortune I ever got (and it did have something to say about the future):

    "You'll be hungry later. Better order take-out."

  5. "Discriminating mind leads you in the proper direction" only strikes me as weird and judgemental...
