The more #knowledge you have, the more you're free to rely on your insticts - Arnold Schwarzenegger #Lifepills

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

In toxic relationships, you're forced to choose between honesty and loyalty. You bite your tongue to protect their ego.

In healthy relationships, honesty is an expression of loyalty. You speak your mind to help them grow.

When you have real trust and respect, candor shows care.

Why waiting for retirement to take a step back from ‘productivity’ and re-evaluate our life? You can do it in your 30s and 40s like a mid-life wisdom seeking adventure https://t.co/KDxtcQYStj

“Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness.” – Seneca

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

An easy way to pick the wrong career is to put your image above your interests and identity.

A motivating job isn't the one that makes you look important. It's the one that makes you feel alive.

Meaningful work isn't about impressing others. It's about expressing your values.

Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.

7 Stoic lessons from Marcus Aurelius:

3. Anger is the opposite of strength
4. No one can make you upset—you choose to be
5. The obstacle is the way
6. Helping others helps you
7. Memento mori

I woke up this morning with this in mind: financial markets are essentially controlled by people that chose to "get a job", and pretend to invest money while knowing nothing about companies and revenues. Good morning and happy holidays

Fun #investing fact. History is gonna repeat?

I always want it to be a project that, if successful, will make the rest of my career look like a footnote.

It's very interesting the concept of evaluating a decision based on "will I regret it?" instead of the classic success/failure or happiness/pain.
