It’s easy to think you’re better than others because you feel you have superior values.

[Lanre Solarin @LanreROSS]

Remember: your perspective of others is limited. You are not all-knowing like God.

“Who are you to judge another’s servant?” Romans 14:4 NKJV

So, chill.

Hey managers: people can love a job without letting it take over their lives.

Detaching from work doesn’t reflect the absence of passion. It reveals the presence of other priorities.

Being plugged in 24/7 is a recipe for burnout. Setting boundaries is vital to well-being.

When we try to do everything ourselves, we become angry and resentful, especially when our efforts are taken for granted.

When I work, my default thought used to be, “If I don’t do it, no one else will”.

“So, let’s walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help.” Hebrews 4:16 MSG

When nothing is working, explore and make a lot of small bets.

After something starts working, double down on what works best.

When that stops working, explore and make a lot of small bets again.

The Bruce Lee Technique

Three steps for learning anything:

1. Absorb what is useful
2. Discard what is useless
3. Add what is uniquely your own

Learn actively. You'll be dangerous.

“The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.” ~ Arthur C. Clarke

[James Clear @JamesClear]

All this time spent talking about other people's bodies, gossiping about other people's relationships, criticizing other people's businesses.

Keep your eyes on your own paper. Work on your body. Nurture your relationships. Improve your business.

We all have plenty to improve.

Taking a ton of work on your shoulders and making promises you can’t keep will question your integrity.

This is why many of us overwork – we try to keep up with all the promises we have made to our boss, co-workers or friends who need something from us.
