[The 48 Laws of Power @48LawsofPowerr]

This law has saved me:

Avoid the unhappy and unlucky.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Life’s not fair, people are messy, and pain is inevitable. Your peace depends on how fast you stop trying to fix everyone and how soon you start owning your response.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

By default, we typically don't want to hear the truth. We just want to hear confirmation of what we already believe is the truth.

[Naval @naval]

When you look back, you’ll wish you’d just done the long-term version of everything.

[Ascendant Power @AscendantPower]

As Naval says:

1. Where you live
2. What you do for money
3. Who you have kids with

Everything else is relatively unimportant.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

The most fragile people are those who've never been broken. The strongest people are the ones who have been rebuilt.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Do not waste time on things you cannot change or influence.

[Barnest Mawahe @barnestwae]

Everyone's worried about artificial intelligence, meanwhile natural stupidity is out here thriving.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

People will judge you if you try and fail. People will judge you if you try and succeed. People will judge you if you don’t try at all. So decide: what do you want to be judged for?

[Moral Philosophy @ML_Philosophy]

The man who can walk away from what he desires, for the sake of what he must become, is a man no one can own.

— Epictetus

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You don’t need motivation. You need a higher pain tolerance.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Results are important, but the way they are achieved, the process, is equally important.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You’ll never be happy if you need a reason to be happy.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You don’t need more. You need less of what doesn’t matter.

[Barnest Mawahe @barnestwae]

It is a curse to have everything go right on your first attempt.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

The most useful trait you can train within yourself: To stop seeing failure as a bad thing.

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

People who are lazy and undisciplined are much more prone to feeling envy.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You don't build psychological resilience by feeling good all the time. You build psychological resilience by getting better at feeling bad.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You can only tell what someone values by what they're willing to say no to.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Most of your problems are not actually problems. They are discomforts. 
Discomfort is not the problem—on the contrary, it’s usually the cost of the solution.
