Delivering your work on time can be a form of generosity. You make life easier for everyone downstream.
Not taking things personally can be a form of generosity. You give people the space to say things imperfectly."

"Unexpected forms of generosity:

Being early can be a form of generosity. You wait, so they don't have to.
Leaving something unsaid can be a form of generosity. You don't always need the last word.

You can’t say “I’m going to hold this stock for 5-10-20 years”. The truth is 1-2 out of 10 stocks you own will deserve to be held 5+ years and you have no idea which ones they are today even though you think you do. Those 1-2 sustainable winners will evolve in ways you could have never predicted. The others will have much shorter shelf lives or not live up to your expectations. This means selling plays a much bigger role than most want to admit. Stock picking means picking winners but also picking out the losers in your portfolio and replacing them. Long-term is an intention, not an absolute. Your intention is to hold as long as management executes. It could be 3 months or 30 years. Most companies will only deserve to be rented. Ownership is earned. Long-term is not an excuse to be lazy. Long-term doesn't mean inactive. You will be very active.

Exploration is how you discover what works.
Persistence is how you make the most of what already works.
What does your situation require? More exploration or more persistence?

How silly of me to forget that I am the love of my life.

[Deepak Malik @Monkwithfire]

“At some point, one will have to learn to let go. ”
There is an endless list of obligations & expectations, desires & ambitions, and worries & fears that will always be ready to disturb you from the feeling of peace.
If you never let them go, there will never be enough.

You must cultivate activities that you love. You must discover work that you do, not for its utility, but for itself, whether you are praised or rewarded for it or not. Cultivate them, for they are your passport to freedom & to love
