A reminder from Atomic Habits by James Clear:

“When you fall in love with the process rather than the product, you don't have to wait to give yourself permission to be happy. You can be satisfied anytime your system is running.”

[Austin Smith @TheHustleCritic]

Repentance is an opportunity to smash the idols that keep us from fully glorifying God.

The purpose of our life then shifts away from my own happiness to God's glory.

But the irony is that in pursuing His glory, we find the happiness we always desired.

Why?

Repentance is an act of choosing to treasure God above all.

And if God is that treasure, then we experience what David did in Psalm 16:

“You make known to me the path of life;

you will fill me with joy in your presence,

with eternal pleasures at your right hand.”

YOUR GYM TRAINER WON'T TELL YOU THIS:

- If you're doing 10-12 reps, increase the weight until you can only do 5-8 reps.
- Keep that weight until you can perform 10-12
reps again.
- Then increase the weight & repeat.
- This is progressive overload.

The heavier you lift, the more muscle you build.

The more muscle you build, the more calories you burn at rest.

The more calories you burn at rest, the more you can eat without storing fat.

The more you can eat without storing fat, the more energy you have every day.

The more energy you have every day, the heavier you can lift.

The heavier you lift, the more muscle you build.

Remember this loop.

“The man, the more he studies, the simpler he becomes, because as he studies he discovers the greatness of his ignorance.”

Read more books. Read to escape reality. Read to understand reality. Read to challenge what you believe. Read to think better. Read to write better. Read to argue better. Read to know yourself. Read to build something. A single book can completely rewire your brain.

[Vala Afshar @ValaAfshar]

Successful people start with two core beliefs: the future can be better than the present, and I have the power to make it so.

[James Clear @JamesClear]

Winning isn't what makes you feel good. Growth makes you feel good.

Sometimes they are the same thing. When you achieve something for the first time, it's growth. You've reached a new level. The win feels satisfying. But when you do it for the tenth time (or the hundredth time), it can feel stale. You're still winning, but you're not necessarily growing.

The secret is not to worry about winning, but rather to focus on growing. And the most straightforward way to grow is to learn something. If you're ever feeling stuck, go learn something new. Read, write, think, learn, repeat.

When you're learning, you're growing.

Drones recreate the Twin Towers, with 2,977 lights, one for every soul lost on 9/11/2001.

What a profound and fitting memorial.

Roy Keane: "Messi didn't deserve to be in the Ballon Dor top 30. A lot of people will say he had a better World Cup than Ronaldo, but scoring against Algeria, Jordan, Egypt is no big feat. Ronaldo would have done the same with those fixtures. And if u compare both vs Spain, Ronaldo had a better game."
