@MoninaCutie grabe lang. most often than not. we are overworked. yet underpaid. may karapatan din kami mabuhay. may pamilya kami snsuportahan. mga bills na binabayaran. hindi lahat ng doctor sa pilipinas mayaman.
It’s okay to be discouraged. It’s not okay to quit. To know you want to quit but to plant your feet and keep inching closer until you take the impenetrable fortress you’ve decided to lay siege to in your own life—that’s persistence.
Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.
“Ambition means tying your well-being to what other people say or do,” Marcus Aurelius writes. “Self-indulgence means tying it to the things that happen to you.”
Real success, real mastery, real sanity? That, he says, comes only by “tying it to your own actions.”
The better you get, the more you are able to tie your identity to the only thing that matters according to the Stoics: your own choices, your own work, your own judgment.
Everything else? The better you get, the less it matters.
I always believe that the journey is important than the destination.
Life gave you this journey because there is something that you need to learn and to overcome.
That’s the mystery and beauty of the journey, overcoming it will be sweeter than the destination.
