I agree with the concept of financial independence but not at the sake of kindness, civility and humanity.

[Morgan Housel @morganhousel]

The concept of f*ck you money is great, but so is kindness and civility.

So I aspire to "no thank you, I'm not interested in that, I respectfully disagree and I'm free to ignore you" money.

One is rationalizing being a jerk, the other is intellectual independence.

If you want to know if someone is wise, check and see if they are teachable, flexible and adaptable. These are key characteristics of legacy leaders.

“The major danger is not that we shall fail to appreciate past models, but that we shall lack the courage to be sufficiently bold in our creative dreaming….

Whatever else may be the character of the redemptive society which the crisis of our time demands, it is at least clear that the society must make the habit of adventure central to its life.”

Show up. Even when you feel terrible, when it’s raining, when your anxious, when you’re hurting, when it feels like the world is against you, show up.

Good things happen when you do.

Entrepreneurs build a boat in the desert. Long before it rained, @elonmusk launched Tesla. Before there was a cloud in the sky, Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone. When it didn’t make sense, they started.

So what’s your excuse?
