You can’t give your life more time so give the time you have left more life. #Anonymous…Walk Good. 28all. Eya. *CM* The Warm-Up: “Do it seriously, or don’t do it at all. It’s too easy to fail and claim that you were not serious about it. You are not fooling anyone, you are just wasting your own time.” ~Orange Book The Core: “I promise you, you don’t have to hurt others to win in life.” ~@turtlebreeze “On some days I believe in communication, on other days I believe in silence, in between the two I exist.” ~Billy Chapata “Two people who don’t know what they want from life aren’t suddenly going to figure it out once they get together.” ~Orange Book “Average athletes think practicing fundamentals is what beginners do. Great athletes know practicing fundamentals is what champions do.” ~@6am_Practice “If you’re hunting us, you wont have to look far. We’re gonna be on your front porch.” ~Dan Campbell on the Lions going from the hunter to the hunted, via @Koryewoods “Anger can be productive. Disappointment can be educational. Frustration can be transformative. Happiness can be misleading. Focus less on the emotion itself and more on how you choose to react to it.” ~Mark Manson “People work. Sacrifice. Then get rich. Then get time. Then fill their time with weird routines. Then forget how they got rich in the 1st place. Then tell others the weird routines made them rich…rather than what they did. Which is whatever it took. Not a 3hr morning routine.” ~Alex Hormozi “You suck at writing because you don’t understand human nature. People don’t want clever, they want clear. People don’t want a lecture, they want emotion. People don’t care about you, they care about themselves. Write with this in mind and watch your readers pay attention.” ~Dan Koe “Sometimes you gotta do it scared. Set goals that are worth the risks. Walk out of your comfort zone and into your calling. Be the catalyst that you’ve been waiting for. It’s not easy, but it’s simple—decide that even though you’ll experience fear, it wont overpower your faith.” ~Michell C. Clark “We focus too much on money and not enough on wealth. Real wealth is what you don’t see: happiness, savings, relationships, independence, controlling your time, love, community, etc. Wealth is easy to feel but hard to measure. A lot of people sacrifice wealth for money because money is easy to measure.” ~Shane Parrish “I was at my best at giving financial advice when I was twenty-one years old and people weren’t listening to me. I could have gotten up there and said the most brilliant things and not very much attention would have been paid to me. And now can say the dumbest things in the world and a fair number of people will think there’s some great hidden meaning to it or something.” ~Buffet on giving advice and the halo effect…@morganhousel “Y’all chasing relevance, it’s evidenced by the way you step / As for me, I cook so masterfully, ain’t gotta pay a chef / I’m older now, but still, I’m cuttin’ edge, I’m like a bayonet / …Thanks to God, I made it out the city, most would say I’m blessed / My greatest flex is that I made a milli', feel like I’m Bangladesh / I hate the press, refusin’ interviews whenever they request / [playas] fake-progressive and woke, I started sayin’ less / I had to stop it, peeped how they profit off of racial stress / Some activists got so rich, they prolly wish we stay oppressed…” ~J.Cole on The Secret Recipe, Lil Yachty & J. Cole Last Set: “Would you rather live in comparison or creation? It’s easier to compare than to create but what are you really here to do then. Don’t follow someone else’s path. Copying someone is like taking what God has in store for them. It’ll never be the same for you. Celebrate others, don’t compare; take time to discover your own life. You’re here to do great things that God already has for you; so do them.” ~Matt Gottesman Food For Thought: “Choosing a path meant having to miss out on others. She had a whole life to live, and she was always thinking that, in the future, she might regret the choices she made now. ‘I’m afraid of committing myself,’ she thought to herself. She wanted to follow all possible paths and so ended up following none. Even in that most important area of her life, love, she had failed to commit herself. After her first romantic disappointment, she had never again given herself entirely. She feared pain, loss, and separation. These things were inevitable on the path to love, and the only way of avoiding them was by deciding not to take that path at all. In order not to suffer, you had to renounce love. It was like putting out your own eyes not to see the bad things in life.” ~Paulo Coelho, Brida Food For Thought II: “When a friend shows you work in progress, your best contribution is to imagine the point of view and preferences of the person it is being created for. ‘I don’t like it,’ isn’t useful, because it’s not for you. ‘I could imagine that someone who wants x, y or z would be looking for…’ is much more helpful…You don’t have to be three years old to be a toy designer, and you don’t have to be three to give useful feedback on a new design…On the other hand, when a friend shows you something that’s finished, the most important thing you can do is find two or three truthful and positive things to say. When someone trusts you to share their work, and cares enough about the world to bring the work forward, that’s already two things worth applauding.” ~Seth Godin, The empathy of useful feedback
