You need to be overdoing it.

Bite off way more than you can chew.

It literally doesn’t matter if you fail.

The sun will rise tomorrow.

You can fail all over again.

It literally does not matter.

@udetokei911201 This is a great dial. Somewhat uncommon design for Hamilton.

You need more responsibility.

Stop fantasizing about Euro-summer and start building something you can pass down to your grandchildren.

You’ll discover a much deeper sense of purpose when you bite off more than you can chew.

Nothing makes you feel more alive than having real skin in the game.

Reject hedonism like the plague.

[J.J. Calder @JJCalderX]

Your life should contain things nobody else has access to.

Thoughts you haven’t posted.

Places you haven’t photographed.

Memories you don’t share.

Not everything meaningful needs to be witnessed.
