For decades, my Mom worked multiple jobs as a NJ & NYC mental health social worker to raise the four of us. Retired from the grind, she now writes fiction and enjoys the sun. Love to all the Moms who finally get to rest and prioritize leisure. https://t.co/RZ1MY2gZJQ

You are here not merely to gratify your impulses and consume what others have made but to make and contribute as well, to serve a higher purpose.

Oh they’re locked in for life. 🥹😍

This family added a new person everytime and I have tears rolling down my face this is so funny 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Being more careful is not what we need; that is just a screen for our fear of conflict and of making a mistake. What we need is double the resolve—an intensification of confidence. That will serve as a counterbalance.

No African nation at the Olympic men’s basketball has won a game since 1996 until South Sudan 🇸🇸 came in. A win for mama Africa 🖤❤️

[Typical African @Joe__Bassey]

The future of South Sudan 🇸🇸 basketball is very bright and it will take over the world soon.

Don’t worry about whether things will be hard. Because they will be. Instead, focus on the fact that these things will help you. This is why you needn’t fear them.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

We don't need to debate whether it's better to be a generalist or a specialist. The world needs both.

Specialists excel at zooming in. They see the details to deepen our knowledge.

Generalists excel at zooming out. They see around corners to broaden our view.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Earlier this week, Michelle and I called our friend @KamalaHarris. We told her we think she’ll make a fantastic President of the United States, and that she has our full support. At this critical moment for our country, we’re going to do everything we can to make sure she wins in November. We hope you’ll join us.

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

I’m so proud of my girl, Kamala. Barack and I are so excited to endorse her as the Democratic nominee because of her positivity, sense of humor, and ability to bring light and hope to people all across the country. We’ve got your back, @KamalaHarris!

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

The role you were given in life is not the role you have to accept. You can always live out a role of your own creation, a role that fits your fantasy. Learn to play with your image, never taking it too seriously.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Machines have surpassed humans in empathy.

New evidence: AI beat humans in detecting emotions and giving support. As long as people didn't know AI created the messages, they felt more heard.

It's not that AI is so good. It's that we often fail to use our emotional intelligence.

[Ryan Holiday @RyanHoliday]

When you're lacking motivation, remind yourself: discipline now, freedom later. The labor will pass, and the rewards will last.
