Your emotions are biochemical reactions designed for survival, not truth.

Necessity rules the world.

One of the fastest ways to change your life is to increase the speed at which you resolve tension.

Return the call. Send the email. Have the conversation. Resolve faster. Watch your life speed up.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

The greatest battle of all is with yourself—your weaknesses, your emotions, your lack of resolution in seeing things through to the end. You must declare unceasing war on yourself.

[Chris Williamson @ChrisWillx]

If you live off people’s compliments, you’ll die from their criticism.

“Be aware of your ego in good times, do not forget that the journey has no finish line.

It’s a continual work in progress with ups, downs, wins and losses.

The constant is never-ending focus.

Focus on building good habits in your life through discipline each day.

If you have a bump in the road, don’t forget we are all human.

Start over and continue to simply do your best.

When things are good, remember this…

If you live off people’s compliments, you’ll die from their criticism.” — Quade Cooper

Dostoevsky was right, my worst sin is, in fact, destroying and betraying myself for nothing

[That Rabbit Guy @Son_ImSleep]

As tough as it maybe to accept, some people will go their whole lives and never realize they’re the problem. You have to just cut ties with them

“Your confidence is lying to you”
Vale la pena repetírselo de vez en cuando.

[Nassim Nicholas Taleb's Wisdom @TalebWisdom]

"Only in recent history has “working hard” signaled pride rather than shame for lack of talent, finesse, and, mostly, sprezzatura." - Nassim Nicholas Taleb in The Bed of Procrustes

"Missing a train is only painful if you run after it! Likewise, not matching the idea of success others expect from you is only painful if that’s what you are seeking." - @nntaleb

"Finer men tolerate others’ small inconsistencies though not the large ones; the weak tolerate others’ large inconsistencies though not small ones." - Nassim Nicholas Taleb in The Bed of Procrustes

Nassim Taleb: the richest man in the Roman Empire woke up every morning pretending he was poor.

Seneca had more to lose than to gain from his wealth - so he rehearsed losing it. Every so often he'd live on bread and water as if shipwrecked, just to make the downside familiar and harmless.

That's the whole game, Taleb says: arrange your life so you have far more upside than downside - then randomness stops scaring you.

"Make more when you're right than you lose when you're wrong - that's antifragile."

"Always keep more upside than downside from random events."

"The Stoics aren't unmoved by the world - only by bad events."

[Krishnamurti @K__Quotes]

Man is frightened of not being or not becoming. He must have a goal, a purpose, an end in view, and the supreme nothingness seems a denial of life.

Have you not noticed that understanding is in the instant, that it is not of time?

"To avoid criticism say nothing, do nothing, be nothing."

"Find a relationship where you, naturally being you, makes the other person happy. And the other person, naturally being the other person, makes you happy."

Those who claim their enemies understand only the language of force understand only the language of force.

[femiiiiii. @femiiiszn]

when you realize that routines are actually rituals of devotion to yourself and your dreams, they become much easier to follow.

[Machiavelli Bot @UnmodernmanBot]

Death should make you more dangerous, not more sentimental. Once you understand how little time is guaranteed, petty conflict begins to look expensive, weak pleasure starts to look childish, and every wasted week becomes an insult from the man you were supposed to become.
