The Rings of Power
"Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You simply must do things."
âRay Bradbury
There is the kindness of âpleaseâ and âthank you.â And the kindness of âI was wrong, Iâm sorry.â The small kindnesses that smooth our interactions and help other people feel as though youâre aware of them .
Seth Godin ⢠Three types of kindness
Identification with a thing: be it a group, a sport team, an ideology, a political space, a job, you name it. Even your name, now that I mention it. You were a child and you shit your pants, but you donât identify with that BECAUSE NONE OF IT IS PERMANENT. Get away from this obsessive need to fit in through identification, go and stand alone
Nicholas Goodey ⢠Frustration
Communication creates community. The way we communicate forms the types of communities we form: communities where the highest good sought is great entertainment and prestige (âhe prepares for those podcasts like none other, and asks banger questions!â) or communities oriented toward the truth and encounters with the real.
When youâre doing something hard, focus on the fun part.
Many people make a subtle mistake, which is they emphasize how difficult it is to do something. They tell themselves writing is hard or running is hard or math is hard. And so on. The dominant thought in their mind is that this is hard to do.
