Learning everyday, on the go. My posts aren’t advice. Professional Athlete, Basketball. The stone keeps rolling.

If you want to dramatically improve your quality of life, learn to recover your attention quickly after something steals it. Social media arguments, stressful thoughts, minor inconveniences. Most of it is noise that steals hours to days of enjoyment. Breathe and let it go.

How I feel about Lanterns

[Josh Chambers @JoshChambers]

Steve Kerr says Roger Federer taught his Warriors team the secret to sustained success wasn’t outworking everyone, it was building a life around your craft you never want to escape from

“I’ll tell you a great story about Roger Federer. We were playing in China with the Warriors in 2017. Roger was in Shanghai for the Masters tournament, so we invited him to come speak to the team.”

“Draymond Green asked him, ‘How do you sustain success? How have you managed to win majors 20 years after you first won one?’ Everyone was expecting him to say, ‘I work harder than everybody,’ the will, all the clichés.”

“Roger Federer says, ‘I get up every morning and I make breakfast for my kids. Then I take them to school and drop them off. Then I go practice tennis for about two hours, and I’ve figured out a really good routine where I don’t destroy my body, but I can get all the work in I need.”

“‘Then I go have lunch with my wife. In the evening, we cook dinner together. The kids are all home from school. We ask them about school. There’s so much joy in the house. We put them to bed, and then I put my head on the pillow and go, “Man, that was just a great day.” And I’ve been doing that for 20 years.’”

“And it was like, yes. That’s it. That’s the formula. That’s what leads to sustained success. He loves tennis. He loves his family. He loves life. It’s not outworking everybody and banging your head against the wall, ‘I’m going to be better than everybody.’ It’s allowing your natural talent to shine through with a work ethic, with a great family life, with perspective, with peace, with mindfulness.”

“It’s perspective. It’s joy. It’s passion. It’s mindfulness. It’s an awareness that we are truly lucky. To get the most out of ourselves, it’s our daily rituals and experiences and love and joy.”

Action breeds and cultivates the things you want to be, not thoughts, wishes, and hopes.

[Daniel Dolenc @Tolenci]

Nostalgia keeps you trapped in the past the same way false hope keeps you trapped in the future.

Stay grounded and embrace the present moment, especially when it is uncomfortable and difficult.

I have noticed that the people who changed my life did not try to change my life. they were simply in the room being themselves with such completeness that the completeness altered me. through proximity alone. the way a fire alters the room simply by being lit inside it.

Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is already one of the best things to come out of the Thrones universe in years. This week’s episode is up there with some of the series all-timers.

[Daniel Dolenc @Tolenci]

Damn this can be so much fun.

I remain grateful, humbled and present.

Some things just feel ordained.

The ultimate goal is getting paid to be yourself. To solve problems you can't help but solve. To study what you can't pull yourself away from. To eliminate any work that does not challenge you creatively.

[Daniel Dolenc @Tolenci]

Your time is never wasted while you remain authentic and true to yourself.

How we wait matters as much as what we are waiting for.

Don’t fall for the trap of expecting results to bring you joy without fully embracing the journey that leads you there.

The Fall-Off

intelligence without discipline just means you can see exactly how you're failing, in high resolution, while you do nothing about it

Screens at night are a problem for sleep, but not for the reasons you think.

I'm basically fully convinced that the available quality data suggests it has little to do with light exposure (blue or otherwise) and almost everything to do with simple procrastination.

When you cut screens out, people just go to sleep earlier.

Some people are light sensitive, but most of the time, it's just that screens are more appealing than sleep.
