fill up your own cup, and let them fall in love with the overflow

Just because someone is saying things you don’t like doesn’t mean that they are not on your side.

A life full of distractions is, at an individual level, diminished. When you are unable to pay sustained attention, you can't achieve the things you want to achieve

— Stolen Focus, Johann Hari

Everything is temporary. When a mood is so overwhelming we tend to mistake the intensity of it for the longevity of it

Live the Pareto Principle lifestyle:

• Relationships. Who are the few people that have the most positive impact on my life? Spend more time with them.

• Priorities. What are the few actions that have the most positive impact on my day? Prioritize them.

• Learning. What are the few information sources I learn the most from? Focus on them.

• Stress. What are

Rethinking is a sign of strength

Hold on tightly, but let go lightly. Nearly everything can be replaced. And if it can’t be replaced, celebrate its existence instead of fretting over its loss.
