@AJIOLife what is the big desperation on your end that you send this kind of stuff to a customer? This shoe is from @pantaloonsindia and is used and the box is in such a dilapidated condition. Are you insulting the customer? Or insulting yourself?

[David Perell @david_perell]

We don’t choose our gifts. They choose us.

A mark of maturity is surrendering to the person you actually are instead of the one you wish you were. Most people never get such clarity, and they’re stunted for life.

The decision to surrender to your gifts is more painful than you’d think. You can’t really choose what you’re able to be excellent at because nobody has a say over the hand that nature deals. (Unfortunately, I’ll never become a professional golfer.)

Instead, if you’re going to be world-class, you have to align yourself with your fingerprint. In our insanely competitive world, surrendering to your talents is your only chance at becoming world-class at what you do.

I think less than 10% of people ever surrender to who they really are. They spend their whole lives trying to fulfill a fake and manufactured image. And so, they get trapped in hollow careers and meaningless pursuits where they’re forced to be somebody they’re not — the stuff of a cold and haunting misery.

Surrender is terrifying at first. It comes with a loss of control. Chances are, you’ll disappoint your parents, teachers, and probably even yourself. If you’re doing it right, you may even pursue low-status projects. Hate to break it to you, but the vision you've always had for your future also won’t come true because that vision was predicated on the person you wish you were, not the person you actually are.

What feels like the death of your dreams is actually the birth of something much more profound.

There's ease on the other side of surrender.

The flow of effortlessness is waiting for the alignment of your mind, body, and spirit — when you’re simultaneously surprising yourself and doing everything that would’ve made your 8-year-old self proud.

Don’t let your amateur crastination turn pro.

Have you noticed that the devil always goes after our worth, our position, and our performance? Why? Because Jesus won a sound victory against him on our behalf in all these areas. We possess all things in Christ. We’re secure in Him. And we have nothing to prove.

[Diane Langberg, PhD @DianeLangberg]

Christ is not only the source for my work; He is also the outcome.  Success in our work as caregivers is measured by what pleases Him, glorifies Him, and looks like Him. Success is not a body count of those who turned out a certain way.

It’s insane that people are so averse to reading the Bible.

By no means do you have to be a believer, but if you’re a Westerner, it’s influenced your life more than any other book and you should know what it says.

[Sheryl Shiju Sam @SherylShijuSam]

@mrsfunnybones I am a proud bombil indeed 🤣🤣🤣 mercy be on those who have to choose to love me EVERYDAY!

Consistency is harder when no one is clapping for you.

You must clap for yourself during those times.

You should always be your biggest fan.
