There is nothing more common than smart people with a beautiful vision who never achieve anything, because they lacked the courage to start and the discipline to keep it up.
People will tolerate a bit of arrogance if you are talented and still young; but once you get older, you understand that you could have attracted many more opportunities if you had had the intelligence to learn humility earlier in life.
You don't struggle with anxiety, you struggle to create an environment that allows you to grow.
Calm people are just people who keep getting better: they know tomorrow will be better too.
It's not about marriage, it's about a lifelong partner that makes you feel understood, with whom you can share all your meaningful experiences.
It's not about money, it's about less stress, less anger, less fear, because you have more options.
Don't forget the bigger picture.
Most successful people didn’t enjoy doing what made them successful.
However, they enjoyed being good at whatever they were doing.
Why do something and not try?
Why do something and not be the best?
Winners understand this. Losers do not.
