Survival to STABILITY. Stability to SUCCESS. Success to SIGNIFICANCE.

No rush, just one day at a time. 😊

[Robert Greene @RobertGreene]

Always stick to what makes you weird, odd, strange, different. That’s your source of power.

[Ryan Holiday @RyanHoliday]

5 habits that are killing your productivity:

1. You don’t wake up early (Marcus Aurelius)
2. You focus on what’s outside your control (Epictetus)
3. You’re in the wrong crowd (Marcus Aurelius)
4. You don’t know how to say “no” (Seneca)
5. You think you’ll live forever (Seneca)

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

The best relationships are with people who value growth. They’re interesting in knowing and doing better. They’re curious about themselves and people around them. They don’t shut down with new information, instead they seek it. They’re not uncomfortable when you change because they do too.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Let's talk about why saying "no" is one of life's most important skills:

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Your work does not define your worth.

A career is what you do—it doesn’t have to reflect who you are. Making a job part of your identity is an option, not an obligation.

Your impact in the world doesn’t depend on how you make a living. It derives from how you live your values.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Not giving a fuck does not mean being indifferent, it means being comfortable with being different.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Bonding through complaining isn’t connection.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

You're not obligated to maintain a relationship with anyone who treats you poorly.

No mentor, friend, or relative deserves unconditional loyalty. Past help is not an excuse for present harm.

If they're having a negative impact on you, you don’t have to keep them in your life.

[Matt Schnuck @mattschnuck]

A former Zen monk taught meditation to Google's top leaders.

He developed a “cheat sheet” for finding clarity in your life.

Here it is (and why everyone needs to know it):

[James Clear @JamesClear]

You have no responsibility to live up to someone else's expectation of you.

Spend as little time as possible chasing other people's preferences instead of your own.

3. Ultimately, we should prioritize relationships over things, since material possessions can never replace the love and connection we share with others.

[Emar Yanga @emargerhdd]

As I continue to explore the type of life I want to lead -- one that's intentionally simpler and more deliberate in all aspects -- I find myself drawn to the principles of minimalism.

[Emar Yanga @emargerhdd]

1. Material possessions are just that -- possessions. Letting go of them can help us prioritize what truly matters in life.

2. We cannot control the actions and behaviors of those around us, but we can choose to surround ourselves with people who support our values and goals.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Progress often doesn’t feel like progress.

Trying and failing is progress. Wrong ideas before finding the right one is progress. Arguing over important issues is progress. Realizing you're wrong is progress. Apologizing is progress. Cutting off toxic relationships is progress.

[Emar Yanga @emargerhdd]

However, now I am yearning for a slower pace and a chance to catch my breath.

Life Update at 28:

In the past five years, I've pushed myself in unimaginable ways, chasing one promotion after another, constantly facing one problem after the next, all while living at a breakneck pace.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Productivity is overrated. What counts most is the quality of output, not the quantity.

People may be impressed by the volume you produce, but impact depends on the value you create.

Success isn't about getting more things done. It's about doing more worthwhile things well.
